Lucy R. Lippard (1937, New York City) is an art historian, curator, writer and activist. As a critic, Lippard is best known for her study of conceptual art in Six Years: the Dematerialization of the Art Object from 1966 to 1972 and for her writing on feminist art and politically engaged art. Lippard has curated over 50 exhibitions and currently resides in Galisteo, New Mexico.

Lippard was an active member of the Art Workers Coalition, an open coalition of artists and art workers founded in 1969 to pressure cultural institutions to take a stand on political issues of the day, including the Vietnam war. She was one of the founders of Printed Matter established in 1976 by Sol Lewitt and others to distribute artists' books. Lippard has written on artists' publications, particularly in connection to conceptual art's strategies of "dematerialization". She was an early proponent of the concept of the artist's book as a "democratic multiple" and famously called for artists' books to appear in "supermarkets, drugstores, and airports" rather than artistic venues.[1]

In 1979, Lippard founded the Political Art Documentation/Distribution archive, which was donated to the MoMA Library in 1989; the PAD/D collection features materials related to ACT UP, Guerrilla Girls, Keith Haring, Gregory Sholette, Yoko Ono and John Lennon, among others.
