The
curator, Dr. Christina Weyl, selected eight artists to feature from the more
than ninety women who worked at the New York facility between 1940 and 1955.
For each she selected intaglio prints indicative of their Atelier experience as
well as an additional piece in another medium: paintings for MINNA CITRON and
ALICE TRUMBULL MASON, string construction for SUE FULLER, sculptures for WORDEN
DAY and DOROTHY DEHNER, and woodcut and collage for ANNE RYAN. Works by Louise
Bourgeois and Louise Nevelson are also included.
