Jo Anna Isaak's Aquaria Exhibition and Feminist Scholarship

Jo Anna Isaak, a writer and curator from New York City, is gearing up for an exhibition called Aquaria, which will delve into water-related themes. It's scheduled to open in Linz, Austria, in January 2002. Isaak has previously curated Laughter Ten Years After, which ran from 1996 to 1998, and the traveling show Looking Forward Looking Black, currently in the U.S. She's also the author of Feminism and Contemporary Art: The Revolutionary Power of Women’s Laughter, released by Routledge in 1996, and has written alongside Nancy Spero for Phaidon that same year. Isaak teaches Art History at Hobart and William Smith College in Geneva, New York. In June 2000, she was interviewed by Martina Pachmanová for ARTMargins Online, discussing the growing influence of women artists since the 1970s.
