听"Mary Beth Edelson is considered one of the founders of the feminist art movement,鈥� Broshears says. 鈥淓delson challenged traditional art values, specifically the representation of women in art and the lack of recognition and opportunities for female artists. Through her activism, Edelson created new dialogue surrounding gender which led the feminist art movement into the 21st century."听
The听Natural Pleasures听suite, a series of color relief prints, created during May 1985 and July 1986, is the result of a collaboration between Edelson, 缅北强奸, the New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art and the Patrick King Contemporary Art Gallery of Indianapolis. The 24 suites were bound in folios designed and constructed by Evansville artist Janice Greene. In addition to the prints, the artist鈥檚 process is illustrated through color studies, printing stencils and artist proofs. The portfolio on display is from the University Art Collection.听
A reception for the exhibitions will be held from 4:30-6 p.m. on October 28 in the Galleries located in the lower level of the Liberal Arts Center on campus.
