Judy Chicago’s illuminated account of women’s history

Created alongside The Dinner Party in the mid-1970s and shaped by research into goddess worship and women’s history, Revelations recasts human history as an illuminated manuscript. Its focus on stories of women described as erased from the historical record connects the book’s subject matter to Chicago’s wider artistic practice. Presented as both narrative and artwork, it offers a form that brings historical recovery and visual expression together. This 287-page hardcover edition makes available a project Chicago began around fifty years ago.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Judy Chicago’s artistic practice and The Dinner Party
  • Readers exploring women’s history, goddess worship, and representations of the past
  • Readers drawn to books that combine historical narrative with visual art

Book overview

Revelations is the work that Judy Chicago believed would never be published: a radical retelling of human history in the form of an illuminated manuscript, recovering stories of women that society sought to erase. Begun alongside her iconic installation The Dinner Party in the mid-1970s, and drawing on her intensive research into goddess worship and women's history, Revelations is foundational to Chicago's decades-long practice. It is at once a vibrant narrative and a work of art, fifty years in the making.
