The Dinner Party

Rating:
Summary: Powerful and Empowering
Review: "Dinner Party" is one of the all-time great works of feminist art, and although it proved too threatening to males, especially the white males of congress, it is art which MUST be witnessed by all young women. I applaud the other reviewers who have distributed this great book to other women.

Summary: A Must Have!
Review: 'The Dinner Party' is notable - not only for its beautiful art - but also for its amazing synopsis of women in history. If you are looking for a summary of the multitude of contributions by women, GET THE BOOK. The art is beautiful, stiking, and magical, the text is equally compelling. Especially recommended for art history, women's studies, etc

Summary: A Must-Have for Women and for Men Who Appreciate Them
Review: A triumph! A long-awaited celebration of truth about all womankind! A must-have for all women. and for men who truly appreciate their worth! Every female in the world should read this book cover-to cover and rejoice. A rare and beautiful work of art--second only to The Dinner Party exhibit itself. I am going to give this book to my daughter, friends of varying ethnic backgrounds, and several lesbian friends. How often do you find a book that speaks to the entire human race about the valuable contributions of the so-called "weaker sex"? Now we must all work to get The Dinner Party exhibit traveling, as it was originally intended to do, so that we can all personally stand in awe at this altar to all Eve's daughters!

Summary: Can't find the book
Review: Even though I have rated this book, I have never read it. Why? Well its for the simple fact that I can't find it anywhere.

Summary: Excellent gift for young women
Review: This is the exhibit book for "The Dinner Party", the historic feminist art project led by Judy Chicago. It consists of a table with 39 place settings, each honoring a legendary or real woman. Each setting consists of painted and sculpted china plates and embroidered tapestries, both replete with imagery and symbolism. I am giving it to a young female friend for her 13th birthday, and I've already given it to a 17-year-old cousin. Congress considered this work obscene, but I consider it a masterpiece.

Summary: Wonderful
Review: What could be more thrilling than a genius like Judy Chicago as she challenges assumptions and traditions with her own brilliant and harrowingly moving depiction of Womyn's struggles. Truly enthralling, and, as another reviewer noted, a threat to the white male agendas of patriarchy. Give this book to all your friends!
