Jennie Waldow
Jennie Waldow is a curator and writer focused on postwar American works on paper, ephemera, and 1960s and 1970s Conceptual Art.
Timed to coincide with the MoMA presentation, this slim but trenchant publication begins with an illuminating essay by Cara Manes and Dominika Tylcz, both of MoMA’s Department of Painting and Sculpture. They convincingly position the Tamarind residency as connected to Asawa’s interdisciplinary ethos, formal interest in figure-ground relationships, and advocacy for arts education.
The biography traces the Yoko Ono's transformation in public regard, covering her lifespan but dwelling on the ridicule she faced as the wife of John Lennon and her critical renaissance in recent decades.
This re-publication allows contemporary readers to encounter the ambition and innovation of the Fluxus project in an accessible, consolidated format. The Fluxus “style” George Maciunas created is deliberately miscellaneous, incorporating multiple fonts and found images into a pleasing hodgepodge.
