Today, Sedge talks with three artists about exceptionalism, feminism, laughter, joy, and how to serve up change in a vengeful art world!

JUDY CHICAGO -- Her artwork incorporates many media, yet she is renowned for her installation, The DInner Party.  She is the author of many books on aspects of art history, aesthetics, and technique.  Was it her upbringing in a family of rabbis that inspired her to use art to teach social justice?  Perhaps.  JUDY also talks about what she learned from FRIDA KAHLO.



FRIDA KAHLO, the Guerrilla Girl, artiste provocateur, author of The Guerrilla Girls' Beside Companion to the History of Western Art and an atelier of posters, cards and witty bon mots created to prod the art world to change.




SARK -- the ebullient and colorful artist describes how, as a first-grader, she wanted to do show-and-tell every day and become a beacon of hope.  Her mother told her to eat her peanut butter sandwich.      And yet...for many she has become such a ray of joie.  She regales us with her life as art.

With a piece by SHARON SHANNON and piano from MIKE GREENSILL.
