"Mary Reid Kelley" celebrates the first museum exhibition devoted
to the finely crafted and researched costumes, objects, and
drawings that Mary Reid Kelley creates for her visually and
intellectually stimulating videos. An essay by curator Daniel
Belasco analyzes the sources and significance of the working
objects in how they promote the unreality effect of Mary Reid
Kelley s videos, which combine both the analog and digital and the
personal and historical. A conversation between Corinna Ripps
Schaming and Mary Reid Kelley and her long-time collaborator
Patrick Kelley reveals insights into their working process. For the
first time, the full range of the artist s costumes, props,
drawings, furniture, and accessories are photographed and presented
as unique works of art."
In Women Artists in Midcentury America, readers embark on a journey
spanning two decades, delving into the evolving social and artistic
landscapes through the lens of all-women exhibitions. These
groundbreaking projects courageously confronted issues of sexual
and racial discrimination, igniting profound discussions about
women's roles within modernism and democracy. Looking closely at
the inception and reception of these exhibitions by curators,
artists, critics and the public, the book sheds light on the
remarkable contributions of numerous artists, from Ruth Asawa to
Marguerite Zorach. By foregrounding the accomplishments of women
artists during a conservative period overshadowed by the feminist
movement of the 1970s, Belasco provides a fresh perspective on the
complex history of women’s art in America and its significance in
the broader art world.
Luise Kaish was a key figure in the New York art scene of the late
20th century, whose multidisciplinary and process-oriented practice
contributed to various artistic discourses at the time. The
strength and breadth of her work, her influential role in
education, and the prestigious awards she received in recognition
of her practice set her apart as an early female leader in the
arts. She will be remembered for her immense talent, highly
individual point of view, pursuit of the sublime, keen execution,
and passion for life, which, despite the tides of changing tastes,
will remain forever significant.
