		All of the artists in this exhibition began making art before the word "feminism" entered the cultural mainstream and their work shares a strong angst-filled sensibility that is undeniably shaped by the experience of being a woman artist in a time of siege and rebellion.

	Nancy Spero/Codex Artaud
		Hewn from the political divide between Abstract Expressionism and figuration that was the epicenter of the American art debate of the 1950's coupled with the pioneering of a female perspective on Western painting, Nancy Spero devised a new form for painting.
		The Codex Artaud, a body of 32 vertical and horizontal scrolls, presents what Spero calls her "non-sequential narrative" in a flash of cut-and-paste images and words.
		Blending language, painting, drawing and collage in her Codex Artaud series, Spero found her voice alongside a generation bent on challenging the political forces shaping the world while searching for greater personal meaning.

		Artist Leon Golub, whose unflinchingly raw paintings of human depravity shattered the cool demeanor of the art world and established him as an effective champion of figurative expression, died Sunday in New York City of complications after undergoing surgery.

	THE BROOKLYN RAIL - ART
		I met Leon and Nancy [Spero] in 1958 while I was a student at Indiana University; we actually got to know each other in the late 1960s when they were living at 71st and Broadway.
		At the Golubs’, we would eat Nancy’s chicken in the kitchen, with the boys; then the four of us would adjourn to the only piece of furniture in the living room, a long white table with chairs and a desk light.
		In confronting official power and its offspring, cruelty, in his painting (on a level that evokes Goya), he had to have a lot of love for what humankind can be, and sometimes is. I felt this love in his demeanor as well as in his reciprocity.

	Leon Golub is memorialized at Cooper’s Great Hall
		A political activist in the early 1980s, Golub was a resident of Lower Manhattan, where he lived with his wife, Nancy Spero.
		Spero thanked the speakers and talked about how Leon’s and her lives were inseparable and that he had truly devoted his entire life to political organizing and artistically presenting his vision to New York City.
		The historic hall was filled with a large crowd for the tribute, which was “a love fest for Leon,” in the words of Cooper Union’s David Reynolds, a friend who assisted Golub in his studio.

		Kartemquin Films is proud to announce the release of the GOLUB/SPERO DVD, featuring the award-winning Kartemquin documentary Golub: Late Works are the Catastrophes and two films by Irene Sosa on the work of artist Nancy Spero as well as an extensive gallery of their artistic works, film out-takes, and more.
		Though the films were not widely seen even in France, four of them—by the time they were withdrawn—had been playing continually and exclusively for the previous six months at the Studio Cujas in Paris, a theater financed for this purpose by Lebovici.
		For the Whitney's artport, Lafia and Lin recomposed the film along a cell-based structure, in which French Authority and the Algerian Nationalist cells are represented by stills from the film and move according to different rule sets.

	Nancy Spero and Leon Golub
		I visited Leon Golub and Nancy Spero in their shared studio space in Greenwich Village recently, and they told me about their work in the Print Center exhibition, their ongoing artistic concerns, and their unique relationship as artists.
		Leon Golub: Basically, it’s The Print Center, so they deal with prints, but we used an expanded, spread-out, even disassociated sense of the print medium.
		Both in their late 70s and married for 50 years, they have each produced some of the most powerful and politically engaged art of the past few decades.

	Feminist Aesthetics
		While the intricacies of her difficult philosophy are opaque and sometimes difficult to pin down, her suggestive ideas have furnished inspiration for feminists artists from painters (such as Nancy Spero) to performance artists (such as Joanna Frueh).
		Feminist interpretations are sometimes informed by Marxism and its varieties; and as we have already noted in the case of film and theories of the gaze, psychoanalytic theories have been widely appropriated in critical theory.
		Feminists in general have concluded that, despite the seemingly neutral and inclusive theoretical language of philosophy, virtually all areas of the discipline bear the mark of gender in their basic conceptual frameworks.

	William Christenberry
		With this voodoo-like magic, Christenberry has neatly disappeared the boundary between the hooded torturer and the hooded or blindfolded victim of torture (directly depicted in Nancy Spero's work, for instance)--both are equally dehumanized.
		Christenberry began as a painter, but with the encouragement of Walker Evans (whose "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men" was set in Christenberry's own Hale County) began pursuing photography seriously in the 1960's.
		For Christenberry, who is white, this imaginative re-Africanization has both irony and a certain feeling of necessity.

		Many of the women who showed at A.I.R., and some who also founded the gallery, such as Nancy Spero, Elaine Reichek, Mary Beth Edelson, and Dottie Attie, have gone on to have significant artworld careers, showing in upscale galleries and museums.
		A few token artists from a given discriminated-against group will be given attention, while the rest languish on the sidelines.
		Younger women artists want to make it in the mainstream, if possible, not languish on the fringes, or in the past, where many think the feminist movement resides.
