Thesis (Ph.D.)--New York University, 2001.

This dissertation is a descriptive and historical study of Jennifer Kotter, Ray Materson and Bonnie Peterson, artists who use so-called “women's work” techniques. These artists have diverse backgrounds and use diverse media. Jennifer Kotter is an academically trained artist who makes what she refers to as “dressed tools.” “Dressed tools” are everyday items such as hammers and c-clamps that Kotter “dresses” with lace, beads and other feminine objects. She photographs the tools, but the work also exists as sculpture. Ray Materson is a self taught artist who makes miniature embroideries out of sock thread. He began making the work in prison. His subject matter is societal problems, including child abuse and drugs. Bonnie Peterson is a self-taught artist who makes art quilts. Her personal experiences and relationships with other people are the subject matter of her work.

520 $a This dissertation is a descriptive and historical study of Jennifer Kotter, Ray Materson and Bonnie Peterson, artists who use so-called “women's work” techniques. These artists have diverse backgrounds and use diverse media. Jennifer Kotter is an academically trained artist who makes what she refers to as “dressed tools.” “Dressed tools” are everyday items such as hammers and c-clamps that Kotter “dresses” with lace, beads and other feminine objects. She photographs the tools, but the work also exists as sculpture. Ray Materson is a self taught artist who makes miniature embroideries out of sock thread. He began making the work in prison. His subject matter is societal problems, including child abuse and drugs. Bonnie Peterson is a self-taught artist who makes art quilts. Her personal experiences and relationships with other people are the subject matter of her work.
520 $a I look at these works as art at the margins, which I define as art that may or may not be perceived to be “low” art because the artists use “women's work” techniques. My discussion of the work focuses on how the work remains or transcends its status at the margins and moves among diverse categories of art. I also present the artists' intentions and views about their art.
520 $a Each artist's medium is set in an historical context to show how the medium evolved, how certain perceptions became attached to it, and how the concept of mainstream art has changed over time. Included are sections on the construction of female stereotypes, the evolution of embroidery as a feminine art form, the evolution of quilts as art, the feminist art movement, and the pluralist attitude of the 1970s.
