Fifty full-color and 350 black-and-white photographs illustrate the Birth Project exhibit, conceived by Judy Chicago, based on nearly one hundred of her works, and needleworked by women across the country. Between 1980 - 1985, Judy Chicago designed dozens of images on the subject of birth and creation to be embellished by needleworkers around the United States, Canada and as far away as New Zealand. Formatted into provocative exhibition units which included both needleworks and documentary materials, these works toured the country and Canada, eventually placed by 'Through the Flower' in numerous institutions where they are on public view or used as part of university curricula. Prior to the Birth Project, few images of birth existed in Western art, a puzzling omission as birth is a central focus of many women's lives and a universal experience of all humanity - as everyone is born. Seeking to fill this void, Judy Chicago created multiple images of birth to be realized through needlework, a visually rich medium which has been ignored or trivialized by the mainstream art community.

Exhibition making requires great effort and resources. Are your exhibitions attracting audiences and drawing them back to your museum? The Dimensions of Curation Competing Values Exhibition Model uses three axes to help you to make sense of exhibitions your museum has curated and think intentionally about future curatorial decisions. Whether implicit or intentional, decisions made about interpretive focus, curatorial power, and curatorial intent indelibly shape the resulting exhibition and determine who will be best served or disenfranchised by it. This book: Introduces competing values and organizational models that address them. Explains the three axes comprising the model and the eight types of exhibitions that result from various combinations of positions on the axes. Looks in depth at case studies of the eight different exhibition types. Provides candid observations about changing curatorial practices. Offers tools to help museums implement the model. Two sections of the book feature practice-based examples from museums in the US and internationally. The third section of the book concentrates on practical tools and considerations for the future of exhibition curation.
