Talk: Laurie Simmons with Genevieve Gaignard
Wednesday, Apr 10, 2019 6 – 8 pm220 E. Chicago Ave.

MCA Theater
Laurie Simmons has sometimes been cast as a "reluctant feminist." In this conversation, the artist brings together a panel of next-generation thinkers to consider the tension between personal politics and the making of feminist art in a moment when gender is increasingly deconstructed. They also address how the feminist reading of her work by younger artists has changed her own perspective and her work.
