A Time of One's Own

Mehr zum Buch

Contemporary feminist artists are revisiting and reinterpreting feminist histories, spanning from the political activism of the 1970s to the queer movements of the 1990s. Catherine Grant analyzes works from 2002 to 2017 by notable artists, illustrating a resurgence of feminism that emphasizes community-building across generations. This approach fosters a collective, autodidactic learning process that embraces past feminist ideas, often perceived as outdated or unconventional. Grant argues that understanding the present requires a deep, embodied connection to feminist history.
