James Kalm harbors fantasies and enthusiasms for being an art historian. So when he received notice of “Coming to Power” he decided to visit and document this “historic” exhibition. Co-curated by Pati Hertling and Julie Tolentino, “Coming to Power” is a restaging of an exhibition originally presented at the David Zwirner Gallery in SoHo in 1993. The original show was organized and curated by Ellen Cantor and selected a group of some of the icons of Feminist art from the past fifty years. Thou concentrating on the erotic, pornographic and queer, this display provides a broad cross section of mediums, modes and conceptual approaches many harkening back to the 1960s-70s, the initial heydays of the Feminist Movement. This show includes works by: Lynda Benglis, Judith Bernstein, Louise Bourgeois, Ellen Cantor, Patricia Cronin, Mary Beth Edelson, Nicole Eisenman, Nancy Fried, Nan Goldin, Nancy Grossman, Pnina Jalon, G.B. Jones, Doris Kloster, Joyce Kozloff, Zoe Leonard, Monica Majoli, Marilyn Minter, Alice Neel, Lorraine O’Grady, Yoko Ono, Carolee Schneemann, Joan Semmel, Cindy Sherman, Nancy Spero, Hannah Wilke et al. This program was recorded September 13, 2016 in Manhattan.
