Beyond the Flower
Twenty years after Through the Flower was first published, Judy Chicago again took up the story of her life and struggles as a woman artist in late 20th century America. In this, her second autobiography, Ms. Chicago takes ongoing issues of gender, power and the history of women, bringing to light myriad of difficult questions about art in our culture that remain unanswered even in this supposedly post-feminist era.
