About the Artist: Judy Chicago is a pioneer of Feminist art as well as art education through her program for women at California State University, Fresno. She is best known for her monumental multimedia project titled "The Dinner Party" (1974) which has been seen by more than one million viewers in sixteen exhibitions throughout the world. Amng her numerous honors, Time Magazine included Chicago in their "100 Most Influential People" in 2018. That same year, she was named one of Artsy Magazine's "Most Influential Artists." In 2019, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago honored Chicago with the Visionary Woman award, and she was an honoree at the Hammer Museum gala in Los Angeles. In addition, the Museum of Arts and Design honored Chicago at their annual MAD Ball in 2020, and her first retrospective opened in August 2021 at the de Young Museum in San Francisco where she was also honored at the De Young's annual gala.

"For over five decades, Chicago has remained steadfast in her commitment to the power of art as a vehicle for intellectual transformation and social change and to women’s right to engage in the highest level of art production. As a result, she has become a symbol for people everywhere, known and respected as an artist, writer, teacher, feminist and humanist whose work and life are models for an enlarged definition of art, an expanded role for the artist, and women’s right to freedom of expression."
