Reproductive: Health, Fertility, Agency – Exhibition Opening and Conversation
Loeb Art Center
Join the Loeb as we celebrate the opening of Reproductive: Health, Fertility, Agency, an exhibition which explores the psychological, physical, and emotional realities encountered by women and people assigned female at birth in the years leading up to, during, and after fertility. The exhibition features work by contemporary artists Laia Abril, Candice Breitz, Elinor Carucci, Jess T. Dugan, Krista Franklin, Candy Guinea, KING COBRA, Joanne Leonard, Wangechi Mutu, and Carmen Winant.
Artists Krista Franklin and Joanne Leonard will be in conversation with exhibition curators Karen Irvine and Kristin Taylor at 5:30pm in Taylor Hall, Room 102. A reception in the Loeb’s atrium proceeds the program, starting at 4pm, and the galleries will remain open until 9pm, as part of our Late Night at the Loeb series.
Please note: Before choosing to engage with this exhibition, please know that it includes references to and imagery related to menstruation, fertility, pregnancy loss, abortion, birth, and sexuality. Some of the art on view engages with the history of the gynecological profession and experiences of racial violence.
