’s exhibitions and collections. Upon returning to New York, Kozloff continued to be active in the women artists’ movement. She joined the Ad Hoc Committee of Women Artists and was a founding member of the Heresies Collective in 1975, which produced '' Heresies: A Feminist Publication on Art and Politics'', a quarterly magazine about feminism, art and politics. In the summer of 1973 Kozloff lived in Mexico. In 1975 she visited Morocco and three years later she visited Turkey. She has traveled widely ever since. During her visits she studies the countries' " decorative traditions" and the cultural significance of ornament there. When Kozloff first realized, in the early 1970s, that the decorative arts were the domain of women and non-western artists, she understood that the hierarchy among the arts had privileged the production of European and American men. This fueled her position as a feminist and inspired her interest in pattern design. She is the co-author, with Valerie Jaudon, of the widely anthologized "Art Hysterical Notions of Progress and Culture" (1978), in which she and Jaudon explained how they thought sexist and racist assumptions underlaid Western art history discourse. They reasserted the value of ornamentation and aesthetic beauty - qualities assigned to the feminine sphere. Kozloff was mentored and inspired by

Pattern and Decoration

Beginning in 1973, wishing to break down the western hierarchy between "

" and decoration, Kozloff created large paintings, drawing upon worldwide patterns, juxtaposing ornamental passages across an expansive field. In 1975, she began to meet with artists Miriam Schapiro, Tony Robbin, Robert Zakanitch, Robert Kushner, Valerie Jaudon and others pursuing related ideas; they formed the Pattern and Decoration movement.Nancy Princenthal; Phillip Earenfight.

During the late 1970s, she produced ''An Interior Decorated'', an installation composed of hanging silkscreen textile panels; hand painted, glazed tile pilasters; lithographs on Chinese silk paper; and a tiled floor composed of thousands of individually executed images on interlocking stars and hexagons. The project was redesigned for every space in which it was exhibited in 1979 and 1980. Just as her paintings had nonwestern origins, for this installation, she compiled a personal, visual anthology of the decorative arts from dozens of sources, including Caucasian

in Pittsburgh. He taught the Oakland Project, in which students went out into the Oakland neighborhood and made art documenting the infrastructure, buildings and people. She said, "That was my initiation into public art -- into the world outside". The mural in the Harvard Square subway station, Cambridge, MA, her first public artwork, was obtained through a competition. Most of the rest of her public projects were directly commissioned. Her initial large scale pieces were composed of interlocking patterns of glass mosaic and/or ceramic tiles, an extension of her earlier gallery art. She began incorporating images from the cities' histories, so as to make the works site specific. For instance, at the Suburban Station in Philadelphia, she substituted an image of William Penn for the Good Shepherd in an appropriation of the famous Byzantine Tomb of Galla Placidia in Ravenna, Italy.Nancy Princenthal; Phillip Earenfight.

She was interested in public art because it makes art accessible to everyone, and not just the public and private collectors, but became disheartened after the 1990s political "culture wars", felt that she'd have to censor her creative expression to create acceptable "safe art", and discontinued vying for public art commissions.

. This book by a feminist artist juxtaposed the obsessive nature of both decoration and pornography in many traditions, to comic and revelatory effect. A founding member of the New York activist group, Artists Against the War (2003), Kozloff has been increasingly preoccupied with that theme. In 2001, she began ''Boy's Art,'' a series of twenty-four drawings based on illustrations, diagrams, and maps depicting historic battles, over which she collaged copies of her son Nikolas’s childhood war drawings and details from old master paintings. An oversized artist’s book of these works was published by D.A.P./Distributed Art Publishers in 2003 with an introductory essay by Robert Kushner. In 2010, Charta Books Ltd. published Kozloff’s third artist’s book, ''China is Near,'' which includes a conversation with Barbara Pollack. For this publication, the artist photographed the China most accessible to her, New York’s Chinatown, a few blocks from her home, as well as other Chinatowns within range. She copied old charts of the

Map themes

Kozloff has utilized mapping since the early 1990s as a structure for her long-time passions - history, geography, popular arts and culture. In ''Los Angeles Becoming Mexico City Becoming Los Angeles'' (1993) and ''Imperial Cities'' (1994) she painted cities she knew, overlaying images and patterns reflective of their colonial pasts. She subsequently examined bodies of water such as the

In 1999–2000, during Kozloff’s year-long fellowship at the American Academy in Rome, she executed ''Targets,'' a walk-in globe in diameter made of 24 gore-shaped sections. She painted an aerial map on the inside surface of each section to depict a site bombed by the United States military between the years 1945 and 2000. Upon entering, the visitor is completely surrounded, and if he/she makes a sound there is an echo amplified by the enclosed space. Two multi-panel, -long works followed, each in the form of the flattened gores of a globe (2002): ''Spheres of Influence'' (Kozloff’s "terrestrial piece") and ''Dark and Light Continents'' (her "celestial piece").

Beginning in 2006, Kozloff’s ongoing '' tondi'' (round paintings) began with Renaissance cosmological charts crisscrossed by the tracks of satellites in space, an imaginary projection of future (star) wars (''the days and hours and moments of our lives,'' ''Helium on the Moon,'' ''Revolver''). "Descartes' Heart" is based on the heart-shaped map, ''Cosmographia universalis ab Orontio olin descripta'', by Renaissance cartographer Giovanni Cimerlino (Verona, 1566).
