Today in class we looked at Mary Wollstonecraft’s place setting from Judy Chicago’s “The Dinner Party.”
I highly recommend checking it out in person if you get a chance–its pretty awesome to see in person, and its on permanent display at the Brooklyn Museum (admission is suggested donation, so pay-what-you-can).
You can read more about the whole project here: http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/eascfa/dinner_party/home.php
Browse the various place settings (a few of the other writers we’ll read this semester have place settings too): http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/eascfa/dinner_party/place_settings/browse.php
