DESCRIPTION:The Northern California Women's Caucus for Art is proud to present 
 "Censoring Women's Art: Why Should We Care." Please join us in a lively 
 discussion about censorship of women's art in the areas of sexuality, 
 religion, war and politics.\n\nOrganized by Hanna Regev, curator of "Banned 
 and Recovered" and the upcoming "Keeping an Eye on Surveillance," this 
 panel will engage in a lively discussion about censorship of women's art in 
 the areas of sexuality, religion, war and politics.  \n\nThe panel will 
 also cover these important questions around censorship:\nAre increases of 
 censoring activities just isolated incidents or a new trend, and who is 
 behind them?  How does the current political climate affect artists and 
 women in particular?  What is the role of the media in censorship? Should 
 artists play an active role in fighting censorship? Are there benefits to 
 putting art under scrutiny? How does it help the artists? Is 
 self-censorship a smart strategy or does it create a chilling effect? What 
 can we learn from past controversies?  \n\nModerator Jan Wurm will be 
 joined by panelists Lisa K. Blatt, JD; Taraneh Hemami; Kara Maria; Silvia 
 Cossich Goodman; Cherie Newell; and Anuradha Vikram. \n\nSpace is limited,
