Artist Judy Chicago recounts her frustrating experiences with public art commissions, focusing on a recent failed collaboration with Google for its Chicago headquarters at the Thompson Center.

Artist Judy Chicago has created a limited-edition perfume trunk for Dior's Miss Dior fragrance, reimagining the scent and its presentation as a tribute to Catherine Dior, the sister of Christian Dior.

Chicago discusses how the project honors Catherine Dior's legacy as a French Resistance fighter and Holocaust survivor, paralleling her own efforts to elevate overlooked women in history.
