This major retrospective honors Chicago artist and former SAIC Professor Barbara DeGenevieve (1947\u20132014) and is curated by her SAIC colleague Associate Professor Alan Labb with support from Professor Lisa Wainwright. The exhibition and symposium explore DeGenevieve\u2019s artistic legacy as a provocateur, her unwavering dedication to teaching, and her profound influence on both peers and students. She is best known for her challenging work focused on the body that explored sexuality, gender, pornography, censorship, race, class, and representation. She knowingly worked at the edge of boundaries to systematically interrogate complex concerns and encourage herself, her students, and her audience to question the status quo. In Your Face<\/em> showcases a diverse array of DeGenevieve\u2019s surviving photography, videos, and installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unless otherwise noted, all of the works in this exhibition are by Barbara DeGenevieve and courtesy of the Barbara DeGenevieve Archive, managed by Alan Labb and Susan Smith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
