From the Preface:"The essays in Feminist Art Criticism are theoretical, and we selected them for several reasons. First, they show a diversity of concerns. These include spirituality, sexuality, the representation of women in art, the necessary inter-relationship of theory and action, women as artmakers, ethnicity, language itself, so-called postfeminism and critiques of hte art world, the discipline of art history and the practice of art criticism. Second, the contributors' work has not been either widely disseminated or readily available. Third, the essays, especially arranged as they are (chronologically), demonstrate a continuous feminist discourse in art from the early 1970s through the present, a discourse that is neither monolithic nor intellectually trendy but that rather exhibits many elements, the polemical, Marxist, lyrical, and poststructuralist being only a few."

"Feminist Art Criticism: An anthology is a diverse and provocative collection of essays written by distinguished art critics, historians, and artists. Arranged chronologically, the anthology provides an overview of a continuous feminist discourse in art from the early 1970s to the present. Often controversial, the writings represent a diversity of approaches -- polemical, Marxist, lyrical, and poststructuralist, among others. The essays, many of which are not readily available elsewhere, cover a wide range of concerns. Opening with Maryse Holder's blunt and powerful look at the art of female sexuality as self-discovery, the collection moves through a feminist approach to erotic art by Carol Duncan, essays on feminist or 'gynergenic' art criticism by Moira Roth, Cassandra L. Langer, and Joanna Frueh, a chapter on the appearance of the Goddess in contemporary women's art by Gloria Feman Orenstein, studies of Chicana and Black women artists by Shifra Goldman and Lowery Stokes Sims, to 'The Last Essay on Feminist Criticism' by Arlene Raven. Contributions by Lise Vogel, Judith Barry, Sandy Flitterman-Lewis, Teresa de Lauretis, and Whitney Chadwick complete the collection with intriguing topics ranging from the representation of women in art to women as artmakers. Taken together, all of the essays show that feminist art criticism is a complex and evolving discipline. The writings range from those that focus critically on the male-dominated culture to those that articulate women-centered art and criticism. These essays point to the need to continually rethink the condition of the creative realm and the status of women in relationship to art. They show that though there have been moves away from a white, patriarchal mainstream, and while some feminist interests (such as gender deconstruction) have even been absorbed into the mainstream, the transformation of art suggested by Feminist Art Criticism is still incomplete." -- Provided by publisher

This text reviews feminist art strategies as they emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s in America and the UK. It draws together the views of prominent practitioners, critics, academics and curators on a broad range of controversial issues. The central focus of the book is feminism's engagement with psychoanalysis and post-modernism and its aim of deconstructing the borders between art and craft, and theory and practice. Feminist politics in the art world are also investigated through discussion of the negotiations of feminist curators, responses to feminist exhibitions, issues surrounding pornography and the censorship of women's work, and the role of feminist teaching on fine art and design degree courses. The book covers a variety of art work, including installation work, painting, textiles and photography.

Download and read online ebook Autotheory as Feminist Practice in Art, Writing, and Criticism write by Lauren Fournier. This book was released on 2021-02-23. Autotheory as Feminist Practice in Art, Writing, and Criticism available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Autotheory--the commingling of theory and philosophy with autobiography--as a mode of critical artistic practice indebted to feminist writing and activism. In the 2010s, the term "autotheory" began to trend in literary spheres, where it was used to describe books in which memoir and autobiography fused with theory and philosophy. In this book, Lauren Fournier extends the meaning of the term, applying it to other disciplines and practices. Fournier provides a long-awaited account of autotheory, situating it as a mode of contemporary, post-1960s artistic practice that is indebted to feminist writing, art, and activism. Investigating a series of works by writers and artists including Chris Kraus and Adrian Piper, she considers the politics, aesthetics, and ethics of autotheory.
