"Woman in the 21st Century: Margaret Fuller and the Sacred Marriage" Exhibition
HP Garcia Gallery
This event has ended.
What does the female prototype of the 21st century looks like? What are her characteristics? How will we recognize her presence in our lives?
"Woman in the 21st Century: Margaret Fuller and the Sacred Marriage" seeks to answer these questions as it explores the coding and iconography surrounding the re-emergence of the “sacred marriage” (hieros gamos) archetype foreseen by Margaret Fuller in "Woman in the Nineteenth Century."
“This exhibition is a culmination of a decade spent chronicling a new movement,“ says curator Lisa Paul Streitfeld. “I want to share with the public my surprise and delight of Margaret Fuller’s genius in placing the “sacred marriage” archetype into the American canon. She broke through the barriers of time in order to make an empowering mythology real for humanity.”
