Joyce Kozloff will be in conversation with Nancy Princenthal during the CAA 114th Annual Conference Annual Artist Interviews!

Joyce Kozloff has been an activist in the feminist art movement on both coasts since 1970 and was a member of the Pattern and Decoration movement in the ’70s. Cartography and mapping have been important foundations of her work since 1990 and are structures through which she explores the range of human knowledge and the imposition of imperial will.After a sustained commitment to public art throughout the 1980s and ’90s, she returned to a studio practice that encompasses painting, sculpture, installations, printmaking, and photography. Two glass mosaic and ceramic tile public works—Parkside Portals (2018) for the MTA Art and Design Program, and Memory and Time (2021) for the General Services Administration (GSA). Her work is included in public collections such as the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, National Gallery of Art, Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles, Jewish Museum, Brooklyn Museum and Whitney Museum of American Art. The survey Joyce Kozloff: Contested Territories is on view at the Everson Museum, Syracuse, New York, through April 2026. She has been represented by the DC Moore Gallery in New York since 1995.


The CAA114 Annual Artist Interviews will be held on Friday, February 20, 4:30–7:00 p.m. CT at the Hilton Chicago. This event will also be livestreamed via YouTube.
