Bonnie Lucas '72 exhibiting at JTT Gallery in New York

Bonnie Lucas '72 is currently exhibiting a body of work from the mid-80s at JTT Gallery on the Lower East Side! The show is titled 'Young Lady' and is curated by Marie Catalano. It includes a number of Lucas' fabric collage pieces, as well as gouache paintings. The work questions ideals of femininty and the role of women in society and at home, making inventive use of found objects along with material and imagery loaded with meaning.

Lucas was an Art History major at Wellesley, and went on to get her MFA from Rutgers University. The exhibition catalogue for this show will be the first book dedicated entirely to her and her art.

'Young Lady' was featured on Time Out New York as one of their Top Five New York Art Shows This Week! (Note: link will change on a weekly basis.)

For more information about the show, see the gallery website. The exhibition will be on display through February 26. JTT Gallery is located at 191 Chrystie St, New York. If you're going to be in New York this month, stop by and see the work!
