艺术家Ann Agee：
没有什么女性主义者
她们只是更完整的表达了自己而已
Ann Agee，安·阿吉（生于1959年）是开创性一代女权主义陶瓷艺术家的领军人物，她把这种艺术形式带到了当代雕塑论述的最前沿。通过她的实践，阿吉模糊地划分了美术、设计和工艺；文化占有和交流的历史；以及女性的各种生活经历。她于1981年获得库珀联盟艺术学院的艺术学士学位，并于1986年获得耶鲁艺术学院的美术硕士学位。她的作品曾入选多个著名群展，包括：1994年纽约新博物馆的《坏女孩》；2009年宾夕法尼亚州当代艺术研究所和明尼苏达州沃克艺术中心的《欢愉上的污垢》；以及2008年纽约卡托纳艺术博物馆的《陶土中的对话》。。是一位以陶瓷雕塑，物品，墙面手绘画的混合装置位主要创作手段的美国视觉艺术家。她的艺术颂扬日常物品和生活体验，展现了对于装饰艺术和实用艺术的喜爱，重申了手工艺品的尊严，并以颠覆性的女权主义立场参与涉及性别、劳工与艺术的问题。Agee的作品符合美国艺术数十年的转变，在这种转变中，陶瓷以及对装饰艺术在家庭生活的考虑降级到二等地位，再到被公认为“严肃”的艺术。她在1994年由Marcia Tucker在“新博物馆”策划的具有影响力和分裂性的展览----《坏女孩》中首次受到关注。在展馆里她安装了一个实用主义的手工陶瓷浴室，以代尔夫特的经典蓝白风格渲染。美国艺术评论家Lilly Wei将Agee的后期作品描述为“雕塑、绘画、艺术品和俗气纪念品的淘气、奇妙的错误后代”。

ANN AGEE
"I work in a ceramics studio, and so many of the people there are making lamp bases. It reminded me of my grandmother, who would transform objects she liked—a Japanese sculpture, for example-into lamps by getting someone to drill a hole in them. There's all this plaster at the top, and glue. It's so funky. But I understand that desire—and it divides people into different categories, whether or not they would make something into a lamp base. But I wouldn't want these to be lamps. I kind of like them as memories of something, or as drawings of the possibility of something."
- Ann Agee in conversation with Faye Hirsh, Art in America, October 2012
