| Abstract | Anna Halprin, Judith F. Baca, Barbara Kruger, and Sheila Levrant de Bretteville created socially relevant public art projects beginning in the 1960s and continuing on into the 1990s. Four Women, Four Public Art Projects, Four Decades: Exploring Socially Conscious Public Art and Social Change takes a closer look at these women-produced public artworks and pulls together the common threads found throughout: the artists are all feminists and they each created public art to help diverse communities grapple with difficult social or political issues in an effort to improve conditions and stimulate dialogue. The four projects and their artistic intentions situated within a specific historical context exemplify a developing dialogue in the field. |
