Program Details

Introduction by Dr. Adam Levine, Edward Drummond and Florence Scott Libbey Director

Marisol, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jacqueline de Jong, and Carolee Schneemann. These four women artists played a key role in the art scene of the 1960s. The four focused on the human form, color, feminism, and political commitment to create a new art form for a changing society.

All four artists were committed to art and societal transformation. Their work also occupied an important place on the public scene, in the media and in the intellectual debates of the 1960s. This lecture will explore the relationship between these four women's lives and careers.
