Feminist Artist - Judy Chicago

For the past 50 years, Judy Chicago, an 'artist, author and intellectual' has been educating the public through incredible feminist strides. Her installation pieces incorporate the role of women through history and culture, with a little bit of modern shock appeal.

The most popular was the 1979 "Dinner Party" which had 39 places set for mythical and historical famous women. The table is placed in a triangular position with table settings which are more or less... vaginas.
