‘Seductive Subversion’ at Tufts

The Tufts University Art Gallery has announced that the major exhibition Seductive Subversion: Women Pop Artists, 1958-1968 will be on exhibit in its Tisch Family and Koppelman Galleries and Remis Sculpture Court from 27 January to 3 April 2011.

“Seductive Subversion,” which includes works by Niki de Saint Phalle and 21 other artists, “examines the impact of women artists on the traditionally male-dominated field of Pop art,” according to a Tufts press release. “It reconsiders the narrow definition of the Pop art movement and reevaluates its critical reception. In recovering important female artists, the show expands the canon to reflect more accurately the women working internationally during this period.”

The critically acclaimed show, which includes works by Niki de Saint Phalle and 21 other artists, was conceived and organized by Sid Sachs, director of exhibitions at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. The exhibition features 70 artworks by 22 artists. Learn more.
