Mothers of Invention
Authors Panel and Exhibition Opening Reception
The 92nd Street Y presents a panel discussion with the authors of Mothers of Invention, followed by a reception celebrating the opening of the exhibition.
In this landmark book, Eleanor Heartney, Helaine Posner, Nancy Princenthal, and Sue Scott offer a radical rethinking of contemporary art through a feminist lens, tracing lineages of performance, abstraction, craft, and ecofeminism and the influence of pioneering women artists on contemporary practice.
