This book analyses how three artists - Adrian Piper, Nancy Spero
and Mary Kelly - worked with the visual dimensions of language in
the 1960s and 1970s. These artists used text and images of writing
to challenge female stereotypes, addressing viewers and asking them
to participate in the project of imagining women beyond familiar
words and images of subordination. The book explores this dimension
of their work through the concept of 'the other woman', a utopian
wish to reach women and correspond with them across similarities
and differences. To make the artwork's aspirations more concrete,
it places the artists in correspondence with three writers - Angela
Davis, Valerie Solanas, and Laura Mulvey - who also addressed the
limited range of images through which women are allowed to become
visible. -- .
