Some Living American Women Artists (collage)
''Some Living American Women Artists'' also referred to as ''Some Living American Women Artists/Last Supper'' is a collage by American artist Mary Beth Edelson created during the second wave feminist movement. The central portion is an image based on ''Leonardo da Vinci’s'' 15th-century mural ''Last Supper''. Edelson replaced the faces of Christ's disciples with cut-out photographs of American women artists. She surrounded the central image with additional photographs of American women artists. The work is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art. Edelson intended the collage to ''"identify and commemorate women artists, who were getting little recognition at the time, by presenting them as the grand subject - while spoofing the patriarchy for cutting women out of positions of power and authority."'' A lithograph edition of 50 prints was subsequently created. A numbered print is in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Artists included in the central po ...

Washington Project For The Arts
Washington Project for the Arts, founded in 1975, is a non-profit organization dedicated to the support and aid of artists in the Washington, D.C. area. History Alice Denney, a contemporary art collector active on the Washington scene, founded the Washington Project for the Arts (WPA) in 1975 as a "service center" for area artists and performers. The WPA's mission was not simply to provide a place for artists to show their work or perform, but also to make available advice in arts management, grantsmanship, career development, and legal rights. Denney launched the WPA with a grant from the Eugene and Agnes E. Meyer Foundation, a tiny staff, a three-story building, and a lot of goodwill. The WPA officially opened in April 1975 with a multidisciplinary program that included a broad survey of Washington area visual art. Denney stepped down as director in early 1979. Al Nodal, hired by Denney, succeeded her as Director in April 1979. Nodal continued to emphasize the work of area ...
