University of Chicago Works of the Mind Lecture Series
Chicago is well known for nurturing the careers of women artists since the late nineteenth century, yet they continued to found separatist exhibitions to promote visibility and sales of their artwork. This lecture will provide a history of several of these organizations and collectives, including the Palette Club (1880–c.1895), Women Artists’ Salon of Chicago (1937–1953), Artemisia Gallery (1973–2003), ARC Gallery (1973–present), Sapphire and Crystals (1986–present), and Woman Made Gallery (1992–present).
