While titans such as Ed Ruscha and Judy Chicago will be the focus of comprehensive retrospectives in New York, there are also countless opportunities for discovery at museums and galleries this fall.
Speaking of women whose fame historically came second to their male partner’s, the Art Institute of Chicago’s latest exhibition centers around a French artist who intrepidly paved the way for female sculptors. During Camille Claudel’s life, from 1864 to 1943, sculpture was deemed a man’s discipline, between its physical demands and its reliance on nude models.
Few people touch as many creative and social industries as Spike Lee. The Atlanta-born New Yorker is as famous for his award-winning films, which have poignantly addressed race relations, Black history, and culture, as for his passion for sports, music, fashion, art, and activism. This fall the Brooklyn Museum is offering a rare, ultra-personal look into Lee’s life and career by exhibiting more than 350 objects from his private collection.
Beyond ballerinas and the stage, Degas depicted many sides of French urban life in his prints, drawings, and paintings. From the 1850s onward, the artist was enthralled by the Parisian laundress—a working-class woman frequently seen washing and ironing goods and transferring heavy baskets in the bustling city streets. Like many jobs for women at the time, it was not at all well paid, forcing some laundresses to turn to sex work.
Spanning three floors, “Herstory” is trailblazing feminist artist Judy Chicago’s largest New York museum survey to date.
