Triangle Image from Judy Chicago's masterpiece, The Dinner Party, is used with the gracious permission of Judy Chicago and Through the Flower.  Through the Flower's mission is to create a cultural legacy embodied in the work of Judy Chicago through education, exhibiton, and preservation. 

Recently, I came across a photo of The Dinner Party by Judy Chicago.  Even now a certain daring and vision surrounds her project, the sense of a brand new thing, the secret joy of naming the names....It occurred to me that somewhat the same feeling arises when we consider the work of women on the web today--writers of web-specific literature and blended media who are making things, setting places, often without institutional support.  Visiting their sites is like going to a Progressive Dinner Party for the year 2000, with cocktails in Australia and dessert in Florida.  Like to come to dinner?   Marjorie C.
