“Women and the Dreamwork”

This lecture inaugurates part 2 of the series “Art’s Inclusive Histories: In Celebration of the 100th Anniversary of Women’s Suffrage.” For Fall 2020, HESCAH commemorates the centennial by featuring gender and/or women-centered research with an eye to its intersectional, transnational and intergenerational complexity in the arts. Dr. Kellie Jones launches the series with the question: “What if the History of Art were taught as a history of women artists?” This query provides the framing and context for her consideration of work by artists Lourdes Grobet of Mexico and New York born Candida Alvarez.
