Judy Chicago

Evening Fan (from Fresno Fans Series)

A luminous gradient of color radiates outward in a fan-like composition, showcasing Chicago's mastery of sprayed acrylic lacquer to achieve seamless, atmospheric transitions of hue. Created during her time in Fresno, this work reflects her early exploration of color and form as vehicles for feminist expression. The translucent acrylic sheet enhances the work's ethereal quality, allowing light to interact dynamically with the surface.
