New Time: Art and Feminisms in the 21st Century
Encompasses 140 Works by a Wide Range of Contemporary Feminist Artists
Press Preview: Thursday, August 26 at 10 a.m. RSVP to afox@Berkeley.edu
(Berkeley, CA) July 28, 2021—Next month, the UC #Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive will open the most extensive exhibition to date of feminist art practices in the twenty-first century. A sweeping survey of feminist art from the last two decades, New Time: Art and Feminisms in the 21st Century features 140 artworks by seventy-six artists and collectives working across a range of media. New Time is part of the Feminist Art Coalition, a nationwide consortium of more than one hundred arts organizations convened by #BAMPFA, which is presenting a yearlong series of programming in 2021 informed by feminist thought and practice.
In advance of the exhibition’s public opening on Saturday, August 28, #BAMPFA invites museum members to preview the exhibition on Thursday, August 26 and Friday, August 27. UC #Berkeley students, faculty, and staff are also invited to preview the exhibition on Friday, August 27.
One of the largest exhibitions #BAMPFA has mounted in its recent history, New Time will occupy nearly half of the museum’s 25,000 square feet of gallery space and will also include a newly commissioned site-specific work in BAMPFA’s lobby. The exhibition will feature dozens of works from public and private collections, as well as BAMPFA’s own holdings, organized thematically to highlight a wide range of practices in #contemporaryart informed by feminist themes. New Time is curated by #apsaradiquinzio, BAMPFA’s senior curator of modern and #contemporaryart and #phylliscwattis MATRIX Curator, who also spearheaded the creation of the Feminist Art Coalition.
In conjunction with the exhibition, #BAMPFA is publishing a fully illustrated 240-page catalog, edited by DiQuinzio, that features new scholarship and interviews on feminist art topics. The catalog includes an introductory essay by DiQuinzio that explores the multiplicity of feminist themes and concepts in the exhibition; critical essays by #lynhejinian, and #jamiesonwebster and #chiarabottici; a conversation between Judith Butler and Mel Y. Chen on the evolution of their thought on gender theory; a conversation between Julia Bryan-Wilson and Natalia Brizuela on recent international feminist art practices; a conversation between renowned Black scholar Hortense Spillers and notable younger Black feminists she has influenced; and individual essays focused on each of the artists and collectives featured in the exhibition.
