A prolific writer, Dickinson produced nearly 1,800 poems, but saw less than a dozen printed during her lifetime, due in part to her reticence to publish. The texts featured in @judy.chicago’s “City of Ladies” installation, part of the exhibition “Judy Chicago: Herstory,” represent a selection of Dickinson’s later work, written out on torn envelopes, paper fragments, and old stationery. Drafted during a period in which the writer entered middle age and encountered several personal tragedies, the fragments communicate an expressive urgency. Dickinson never married or moved away from her family home, and so was often characterized as a reclusive spinster—a mythology that has since been challenged by scholars. In revisiting Dickinson’s legacy within “The City of Ladies,” an exhibition-within-an-exhibition spanning the achievements of 80+ women artists, writers, and cultural figures across 500 years of art history, Chicago positions the poet’s passionate engagement with everyday life and the natural world in an alternative art and historical canon.
