Brooklyn creates a home for feminist art.

Despite the horrendously cheesy title and the not-so-fantastic review (“feminist art” is a faux genre?), I’m stoked to see that the Brooklyn Museum has opened the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art, in which their new show, “Global Feminisms,â€? is running through July 1st.
The show consists of contemporary feminist art by close to 90 women from nearly 50 countries, and is featuring special events, talks by artists and curators, concerts and film screenings. One of the works, “The Dinner Party� by Judy Chicago (pic above), is thought by many to be one of the most famous feminist artworks out there.
Yet another reason to be thrilled that I moved to BK.
