Judith Godwin

When Judith Godwin died on May 29 in her ninety-second year, the art world lost the last living member of a generation of women Abstract Expressionists, a group of artists largely overlooked in favor of their male peers. More #judithgodwin

JUDITH GODWIN. Born in Suffolk, Virginia, Godwin was encouraged in her aspirations to paint by her parents. In 1948 Godwin enrolled in Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, Virginia. There, as president of the athletic association, she proposed that the school establish a dance program. At the time Martha Graham was on tour, Godwin made arrangements for the company to perform at the college. Graham and Godwin felt an immediate affinity—both later recalled that on their initial meeting, they had a long conversation, while sitting on wicker chairs, in which Graham urged Godwin to study dance in New York. Godwin knew that dance was not her calling, but Graham’s recommendation inspired her to come to New York and study painting. When she first arrived, she stayed at the Barbizon Hotel, down the street from Graham. They would become good friends, and Godwin often would attend Graham’s performances and watch from the wings.

#Repost @hyperallergic with @repostapp ・・・ Why were so many women excluded from the history of Abstract Expressionism? Tune in to the Hyperallergic Podcast where in our latest episode, we focus on the 'Women of Abstract Expressionism' exhibition at the Denver Art Museum and explore this bigger question. We talk to Denver Art Museum curator #GwenChanzit , artist #JudithGodwin — an Abstract Expressionist who has largely been ignored in the history books, feminist art historian #LindaNochlin, and curator and critic #KarenWilkin, who was friends with Helen Frankenthaler (one of the leading Abstract Expressionist artists). See link in our bio. #ElainedeKooning’s “Bullfight” (1959) was acquired by the @denverartmuseum (📸@hragv/Hyperallergic)

EXHIBITION NEWS. “Postwar Women” is The Art Students League’s first exhibition to explore the vital contributions of these alumnae on the international stage. On view at The Phyllis Harriman Mason Gallery from November 2 to December 1, 2019, “Postwar Women” challenges the misperception that great art produced by women artists is somehow an exception rather than the rule. Curator Will Corwin investigates the history of innovative art academies like The League that promoted democratic ideologies, which in turn created artistic opportunities for women of all social classes. This ground-breaking exhibition features over forty artists active between 1945-65, tracing the complex networks these professional women formed to support one another and their newfound access to art education.

For Judith Godwin, painting “is an act of freedom and a realization that images generated by the female experience can be a powerful and creative expression for all humanity.” [Judith Godwin “Epic 2” 1959 oil on canvas 95 x 83 inches] #judithgodwin #godwin #epic #womenartists #womenofabstractexpressionism #abstractexpressionism #abstraction #abstractpainting #1950s #virginiaartist #villageartist #nycart #chelseagalleries #contemporaryart #artistrepresentation #berrycampbell (at Berry Campbell) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4BqFPTFu2J/?igshid=1oj6vj42fe3aq
