Women with their Work is a series of all-women group art exhibitions co-curated by Peter Prinz and Jessica Dallow, Ph.D. The impetus for this series is SOE’s 1988 exhibition titled Blue Angel: The Decline of Sexual Stereotypes in Post-Feminist Sculpture. The theme of that exhibition, along with the current discussions about women’s rights, led to the search for an examination and discussion of issues related to women’s issues and their contributions to the visual arts.

The third and final group exhibition in the series features female sculptors. Artists in the exhibition are Sara Garden Armstrong, Janice Kluge, and Camille Goulet of Birmingham; Erin Cunningham and Beili Liu of Austin; Shervone Neckles of Queens; and Fabiola Jean-Louis of Brooklyn. The exhibition will be on display September 7, 2018 from 5:30 to 7pm in conjunction with Artwalk and will run through December 28, 2018.

There will be a reception and panel discussion addressing underrepresentation of women artists on Friday, September 14 from 5:30 to 7pm. Exhibiting artists on the panel are Sara Garden Armstrong, Erin Cunningham, Fabiola Jean-Louis, Janie Kluge, and Beili Liu. The panel discussion will be moderated by Jessica Dallow.

As Co-Founder and CEO of Space One Eleven, Prinz has organized and presented hundreds of exhibitions exploring social justice issues. Dallow is Interim Chair and Associate Professor of Art History at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Art and Art History, and is an authority in the field of modern and contemporary feminist art.

Previous exhibitions in the series featured artists addressing social justice issues and themes associated with identity.
