Answer to Question 1

Glenn Ligon's Untitled (I Do Not Always Feel Colored) speaks to the artist's own relationship to blackness. The work makes use of stencils to create text that allows the viewer to read them in his or her own internal voice. Ligon therefore puts his own voice in the work, as well as allowing the viewer to interpret the text in his or her own internal voice. In addressing the most highly charged issue, the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s, David Wojnarowicz used the formal means of advertising to channel emotions from his personal experience. His Americans Can't Deal with Death juxtaposes an exotic flower with tiny text that hints at his recognition and avoidance of Death.

Answer to Question 2

Judy Chicago was a feminist artist who created works addressing gender in a variety of media, subjects, and themes. The Dinner Party is perhaps her most important work from the 1970s feminist movement. Arranged around a triangular table were 39 place settings, each individually designed by different artists in honor of an influential woman. By using craft techniques such as ceramics, weaving, needlepoint, and embroidery, Chicago physically associated the piece with women's work.
