One Woman can change the world. Hey Guys, let's do all we can to create more understanding in ourselves. It's time we learned to speak the words that women want to hear. It's time we understood more fully, Woman.

I just a hit of the energy of
Judy Chicago, an enlightened woman
speaking her piece.

She shows that one woman can create
a whole new world.

I started the day, reflecting
that if more understanding was created
between one man and one woman today
we could create more Enchanted Garden
between us.

I encourage everyone in the CureZone
to go to some of these links that reflect
on the life of Poet and Artist
Judy Chicago.

Look what one woman can do!!!

I have a deeper understanding
already, just from reading from these
sites about Judy Chicago.

Lets's get on the program guys...
The women among us are incredible!!!

Your Enchanted Gardener,
Leslie


Ode to Female Genitarlia:

The Dinner Party and Pop Culture
By Joan Altabe
------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Dinner Party finally found permanent refuge in a museum, albeit a handout to the Brooklyn Museum.

It took 25 years for Judy Chicago’s installation to find a resting place. Which shouldn’t surprise anyone. From the start, few in the art world liked the work: an installation of a triangular-shaped table (the artist’s ode to female genitalia) set for 39 women ignored through history. Said to be too literal-minded and heavy-handed, The Dinner Party has been routinely panned as the visual equivalent of soap box speeches. Which accounts for why Christopher Knight, art critic for the L.A. Times, wrote that he wanted to "run screaming from the room" when he saw it.
