This important new book examines contemporary art while
foregrounding the key role feminism has played in enabling current
modes of artmaking, spectatorship and theoretical discourse.
Contemporary Art and Feminism carefully outlines the links between
feminist theory and practice of the past four decades of
contemporary art and offers a radical re-reading of the
contemporary movement. Rather than focus on filling in the gaps of
accepted histories by 'adding' the 'missing' female, queer, First
Nations and women artists of colour, the authors seek to revise
broader understandings of contemporary practice by providing case
studies contextualised in a robust art historical and theoretical
basis. Readers are encouraged to see where art ideas come from and
evaluate past and present art strategies. What strategies,
materials or tropes are less relevant in today's networked,
event-driven art economies? What strategies and themes should we
keep hold of, or develop in new ways? This is a significant and
innovative intervention that is ideal for students in courses on
contemporary art within fine arts, visual studies, history of art,
gender studies and queer studies.
