From November 17, 2023 – March 31, 2024:
Home Sweet Home.
Curated by Sarah Michelle Rupert
Girls’ Club Collection presents Home Sweet Home, an exhibition from the collection of Francie Bishop Good and David Horvitz that looks to the domestic sphere for insight and influence.
Historically assigned to the care and management of women, the home is simultaneously a place of comfort and confinement. That dualism is an endless source of discussion and articulation.
Home is a nostalgic idea. For many it is full of sweet memories and the innocence and levity of youth. For others, home is a conflict zone that must be navigated carefully and delicately.
Women artists make up the majority of the Good/Horvitz Collection. Their roles as daughters, mothers, sisters, aunties, grandmothers and care givers has undoubtedly shaped their work and creative practice in ways innumerable. Home Sweet Home takes a look at the different ways in which these artists articulate that balance.
Artists include Harumi Abe, Diane Arbus, Tina Barney, Molly McGreevy, Alice Neel, Peggy Levison Nolan, Kerry Phillips, Laurie Simmons and others.
