The Art of Menstruation at
the Museum of Menstruation and Women's
Health
"Profondo
Rosso" (Deep Red),
article by Vera Schiavazzi in
Marie Claire magazine, Italy, 2003
Last year (2003) the photo
editor of the Italian edition of
Marie Claire asked me to contact
several artists in MUM's Art of
Menstruation exhibit (here) for
pictures to illustrate a
wide-ranging article on the
culture of menstruation - exactly
what this MUM site and the future
physical museum are about. She
also needed other pictures from
this MUM site.
Just try to find another stylish
publication daring to do this!
Facing the interior pages of the
five-page article sparkle ads for
two expensive jewelry lines, one
in platinum, and fashionable eye
glasses.
Besides cultural information
from around the world - religion,
words, comic strips, research, and
more - the article discusses this
museum and mentions Pulitzer Prize
winner Natalie Angier (a New York
Times science writer), Camille
Paglia, Judy Chicago (see her MUM
contribution here),
Tamara Wyndham (her MUM contribution)
and others.
