Judy Chicago Untitled (Kroll Artist)
Directors Kate Amend and Tim Marrinan, Producer Lisa Remington
When Judy Chicago, a trailblazing Jewish feminist artist once dismissed by the establishment, steps into the limelight at 80-something, her iconic six decade fight against women’s erasure from the art world takes on new significance. Seamlessly traversing past and present, Judy Chicago Untitled unlocks an electric story of startling resilience and ingenuity, asking whether art can transform the world?
Director Kate Amend was selected as the 2022 Kroll Artist, which includes an additional grant award to the team.
