Art is a powerful lens through which to examine notions of gender, identity, and sexuality in society. That\u2019s why each fall the Susan B. Anthony Institute for Gender and Women\u2019s Studies requests submissions for its annual juried exhibition of art, en(Gendered)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Marty Collier, an administrator in the Department of Art and Art History, organized the first iteration of the competition in 2005. Open to all undergraduate students at the University, it features a different theme from year to year. Past themes include \u201cWords and Works: Dialogues in Intersectionality,\u201d \u201cFailure Is Impossible: Feminism\u2019s Past, Present, and Future,\u201d and \u201cIn Labor: Gendering (Re)Production.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBetween Identities and Environments\u201d\u2014the 2015 theme\u2014elicited an array of artwork in a variety of media, from oil-on-canvas paintings and black-and-white photographs, to video productions and umbrella-tree sculptures.<\/p>\n

The submissions were on display at (en)Gendered<\/em>\u2019s opening, held in Sage Art Center on January 15. During the event, Rachel Haidu, director of the graduate program in visual and cultural studies and associate professor of art history, delivered a gallery talk.<\/p>\n

The theme, says Haidu, presented \u201ca way to think about how we ought to complicate ideas of gender beyond one context. \u2026 The submissions broaden the scope of what gender might mean within a range of environments\u2014from the Rochester campus to the virtual realm.\u201d<\/p>\n

Take, for example, Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s Forgotten Hobby<\/em> by Jack Jones \u201915, one of the honorable mentions. Nobel Prize-winning physicist Erwin Schr\u00f6dinger, known as the father of quantum mechanics, is remembered for what is now called the Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s cat thought experiment. However, Schr\u00f6dinger himself would point out the importance of having hobbies that are distinct from one\u2019s primary mode of production. His own interests traversed a variety of disciplines, including botany, philosophy, painting, and pantheism.<\/p>\n

To the jurors, Jones\u2019 work\u2014an intricate construction of colorful beads, wires, nails, and wood in a pattern resembling a motherboard\u2014highlights the subjective distinction between \u201chigh art\u201d (primary production) and craft (secondary production). That distinction mirrors the one constructed between men and women, with art considered masculine while craft is relegated to feminine sphere. The piece also juxtaposes two different communities: one of scientists at work and one of elementary-age children at play.<\/p>\n

Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s Forgotten Hobby<\/em> is just one of several interesting and thought-provoking creations worth seeing in person. Along with the other honorable mentions and winning selections, it will be featured in a special exhibition in the gallery at the Art and Music Library within Rush Rhees Library. They will be on display from January 23 through February 27.<\/p>\n
