Horror and Humor: Bailey Doogan and the Feminist Revolution

Art critic and writer Eleanor Heartney delves into the work and significance of artist Bailey Doogan in this virtual talk with University of Arizona Museum of Art.

Bailey Doogan’s art is infused with the revolutionary ideas swirling around feminist thinking in the early 1980s. This talk by Eleanor Heartney looks at how feminist ideas about the female body, power and gender, and pleasure and pain shaped Doogan’s outlook and allowed her to create a body of strikingly original work that continues to resonate today.

This talk is offered in connection with the exhibition Bailey Doogan: Ways of Seeing.
