Judith Henry (born 1942) is a New York-based artist [ 1] Jaime Davidovich , with whom she has two daughters. She currently lives in Williamsburg, Brooklyn .
Early life and education
Henry received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Carnegie-Mellon University in 1964.[ 2]
Career
Pages of Freud (1971), Henry crosshatches lines onto page after page of Freud's writings, signaling her persistent doubts about the therapeutic potential of language. She continues mining this vein in both Telephone Book Series (1973) and Male and Female (1982, 2009).
Henry designed Crumpled Paper Stationery as part of Wooster Enterprises (1976–79), a collaborative, conceptual business she began with artist Jaime Davidovich. Using their own original designs and additional prototypes by George Maciunas , Davidovich and Henry sold small paper products—greeting cards, writing pads, confetti, and other paper goods—to large and small stores throughout the United States. Their intent was to bring conceptual art into a truly commercial arena. After Wooster Enterprises failed, The Museum of Modern Art continued to produce Henry's crumpled paper stationery. For years, it was one of the Museum store's best selling items.
