All the women in the illustrations are white middle class. Poorer women of all races HAD to work and did. PHT was "putting hubby through", which meant working to support themselves and their husbands while he finished his degree(s). I'm from those days; it's strange hearing you teaching it as history. Betty Friedan's book was not the beginning of the 2nd wave. That started during the civil rights and anti-Vietnam war days, & because of how men in the movements treated women in the movement. Friedan's book had nothing to say about women in art. For that, see "When God was a Woman". I forget the author's name.

Women workers were recruited for war manufacturing; they were NOT "invited into the conversation". There was no problem about getting men back into "their" jobs; the women were all fired.

One thing you forgot to mention about her "Last Supper" performance or VB65 that was really gross and racist was how she had the models eat. They ate roasted chicken with brown bread and drank water. Only there were no plates, napkins, cutlery, or glasses. These poor guys had to sit there, eat with there bare hands, and drink from the same decanter. Not only is that incredibly disgusting it was also probably really humiliating for those immigrants. The whole piece was just her humiliating and exploiting immigrants. That's like doing a "performance" about how arson is bad by selling tickets for people to watch you burn down somebody's house.

I have actually added that work to current class content! I definitely agree that it was missing and needed to be added. Absolutely horrific.

@@stephanierhyner1170 Yeah I think (and this is just armchair psychology) that she is someone who truly lacks any empathy for other people. I think that's the reason why her pieces that try to call out misogyny or racism come off as misogynist and racist. In my estimation she sees people as objects and as tools for her to play with. For example her piece on women from Darfur (VB61), she clearly didn't care about the trauma these women went through, and the end result was so tasteless and disgusting. I mean yeah, I get there is a point about making shocking art to make other people interested in real world issues but that was just so tasteless and fucked up.

There is a beautiful and fascinating new book on museum exhibition design and the life and career of a famed museum exhibition designer now in his 90s. The title of the book is "The Object in its Place." The book is filled with historic and current photographs of the installations as well as a series of "lessons" for the reader that are called out in red. This book is a valuable tool for anyone interested in the process of museum exhibition design from the initial sketches to the final installation. Available at: www.fineartspress.com
This is a very informing lecture, listening from a European/German livelihood imprinted sociocultural perspective. While following this a currently more or less typical „messenger-Morning-Chat’ dialog between me and my daughter happened, showing, photos of details of her clothing - T-shirt imprint, Jacket front/back sewing details - … the most interesting aspect to me was her ability to combine „different sections of social/gender expectations“ - the melange of the motifs she had chosen and combined : roaring Lion (american filmindustry logo, imprint front T shirt ) and three flying eagles (japanese stitched motif, - left right front , 1 backside) - the Melange of textures: Satin(jacket), Jersey(T-shirt) and above all The gaze of frilled Chiffon collar Not to mention the different Colors and the further accessories... All of this thought through to the model of Judith Butlers‘ performativity & gender theory let me think: „WoW! ! She is free as far as possible in the given cultural context - she chooses her own way.“ (To picture this: headphones on and masked up into the „wild“ /public/work just speaks about current restricted conditions in ubiquitous life.) „This is performed performativity, what hardly is to be imagined by me from a girl same age, in a comparable social context in America“ -… so I thought first - recognizing then: „…- it is me thinking. And : it is me „thinking ‚like that‘.“ - to turn it into a more hopeful idea: „Young people are young and in their ‚notKnowing‘ are capable to step,over theoretical discoveries.“ while at the same cutting point somehow one-sided/biased imprinted elders have lost their trust in this kind of innocent phantasy and power of youth. And we have to recognize how this mingles up with educated and manipulative characters and their personal and individual goals. There are probably globally infinite biological female and male and diverse human under heavy pressure to define their inner Self. This complexity is heavy load. - Certainly nothing for people unwilling to change political Status Quo. Thank you for sharing this lecture it is really helpful to learn about, what and t.h.a.t. we construct our gendered worlds. (… corrected my first comment - the lesson still reveals how pre-occupied [my] thinking is. )

I actually like the long explanations/video as you do a better job explaining our readings than reading itself. We can always rewind or fast forward on our end as well. Thank you for these postings!
