This exhibition features works by Hung Liu which adapt and subvert Maoist propaganda cartoons that were published during the 1950s. In the series, Liu revisits cartoons of her youth that were published in children's books and primers (known as "xiaorenshu"). The exhibition was organized by Georgetown University Art Galleries, and guest curated by Dr. Dorothy Moss.
This exhibition is the first-ever museum retrospective of drawings by Josefina Auslender, whose work in graphite, colored pencil, and ink spans decades and continents. Born in Buenos Aires in 1934, Auslender explored her passion for art from an early age before committing herself to the medium of drawing in the 1970s. "Josefina Auslender: Drawing Myself Free" features more than 100 drawings created in Argentina and the United States that collectively reflect her enduring interest in building new worlds through the visual languages of abstraction and Surrealism.
This exhibition brings together the etchings of an international array of women who have continued to expand the scope of etching and their own creative practices. Through work of artists including Emma Amos, Mary Cassatt, Helen Frankenthaler, Käthe Kollwitz, Hung Liu, Louise Nevelson, Howardena Pindell, Dorothea Rockburne, Barbara Rossi, Alison Saar, and Suzanne Valadon, Front Lines explores such themes as gender, race, class, identity in addition to the expressive idioms of both figuration and abstraction.
