Jennifer and I will examine the long standing connection between women artist and domestic space/domestic tasks.  In her manifesto/proposal for the exhibition "Maintenance Art", Merle Ukeles, a first generation feminist artist, investigates the art of domestic chores.  What comments are being made of today's domestic sphere?  Tracy Emin, Sarah Lucas, and Rachel Whiteread (these names are subject to change) are all contemporary female artists who have worked with elements of domestic space, but how have their ideas of domesticity different from ones conceived 40 years ago and are their goals feminist in nature?
