Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and Campari present From the Salon to the Moshpit: Creating Spaces of Assembly November 17, 2007

From the Salon to the Moshpit: Creating Spaces of Assembly
In 2008, the Bay Area will be activated with a wealth of exhibitions and events examining the impact of feminist art and ideology on contemporary art. This panel brings together a selection of women artists, musicians and curators to discuss the legacy of feminist art and critique, especially as it affects the work of a younger generation of artists working locally and internationally. Panelists JD Samson, of the band Le Tigre, Emily Roysdon, an artist, writer and member of the collective LTTR, and San Francisco-based curator and educator Jill Dawsey will discuss the process of building collaborative networks of support that feed their own individual creative practices as well as those of their friends and peers. They will talk about exhibitions, journals, rock concerts and other spaces of assembly they've created to bring people in their expanded networks together.
The panel will be moderated by YBCA's Associate Visual Arts Curator Berin Golonu.
