"Heresies." Grove Art Online. Oxford Art Online. Oxford University Press, accessed February 1, 2014, http://www.oxfordartonline.com/subscriber/article/grove/art/T2085890.〕 She was an instructor at the New York Feminist Art Institute.〔Virginia Watson-Jones, (''Contemporary American Women Sculptors''. ) Phoenix: Oryx Press, 1986. p. 256.〕 In 1984, she moved to New Mexico.〔 As a tenured full professor, Hammond taught painting, combined media and graduate critiques at the University of Arizona in Tucson, from 1988 to 2005.〔 In her art, Hammond asserts that traditionally feminine qualities are worthwhile artistic subjects and means for artistic creation. To this end, for example, she created sculptures in the early 1970s featuring swaths of fabric, a traditionally feminine material, as a primary material. There were four fabric series: Bags (1971), Presences (1972), Floorpieces (1973), and Wrapped Sculptures (1977-1984).〔http://www.harmonyhammond.com/HarmonyHammond.html〕〔Margo Hobbs Thompson, "'Lesbians Are Not Women': Feminine and Lesbian Sensibilities in Harmony Hammond's Late-1970s Sculpture," ''Journal of Lesbian Studies'' 12, 4 (2008): 435-54〕 Harmony Hammond's paintings themselves show how they were made and are almost all abstract.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Harmony Hammond )〕 Hammond is openly lesbian, and curated ''A Lesbian Show'' in 1978 at 112 Greene Street Workshop, featuring works by lesbian artists.〔 She was one of the featured artists in the "Great American Lesbian Art Show" at the Woman's Building in 1980. She also curated an exhibition in 1999 at Plan B Evolving Arts in Santa Fe titled ''Out West'', bringing together 41 lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and two-spirit artists from the Southwest.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nmartmuseum.org/assets/files/Finding%20Aids/Out-West-Finding-Aid.pdf )〕 In 2000 she published ''Lesbian Art in America: A Contemporary History''. She is featured in two 2010 films on feminist art - ''The Heretics'', directed by Joan Braderman which focuses on the founders of the magazines ''Heresies: A Feminist Publication of Art and Politics'' in 1976; and ''!Women Art Revolution'', directed by Lynn Hershman Leeson.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harmony Hammond」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
