"A rousing riposte to anyone who thinks that feminism is now
‘post’, this book full of fascinating accounts of a disparate range
of practises provides a challenge to patriarchal attitudes in the
artworld in engaging, enlightening and at times humorous ways – a
veritable celebration of female creativity and thought." -
