Rachel Middleman
Erotic Art and Feminism in the 1960s
Thursday, June 22, 2023, 1pm EDT
Rachel Middleman, associate professor of art history at California State University, Chico, will give a lecture as part of the Wildenstein Plattner Institute’s webinar series Between the Two: Art and Sexuality in 1960s New York. She will explore the broad category of “erotic art” in exhibitions of the decade, discussing Pop artists including Tom Wesselmann, and consider the ways in which women artists, among them Martha Edelheit and Marjorie Strider, sought to reshape the conventions of “the nude” and upend the presumed objectivity of formalism of erotic art.

Tom Wesselmann’s 1962 Debut at the Green Gallery with Susan Davidson
Tuesday, October 4, 2022, 1pm EdT
As part of the Wildenstein Plattner Institute’s webinar series Pop Places 1958–1966, curator and art historian Susan Davidson will discuss research from her upcoming monograph devoted to the stylistic development and reception of Tom Wesselmann’s most famous body of work, the Great American Nude series (1961–69/73), many of which were shown at the Green Gallery in New York in 1962. Each of these midday talks is dedicated to a different key New York exhibition space of the Pop era from an array of sites where artists, gallerists, and critics collectively worked through and developed the forms, ideas, and challenges that would later become identified with the Pop art movement.
