About Forever de Young
In the early 2000s, a new generation of scholars surfaced and celebrated Judy Chicago's 1960s and 1970s Atmospheres performances as feminist responses to the Light and Space movement. These unprecedented works, which opposed the permanent transformation of landscapes by her male peers and escaped recognition for decades, were finally understood as a form of sustainable earth art that freed color from the rigid structures of painting and sculpture and allowed it to gush into the air as clouds of pigment.
