Deep dives
The Evolution of Feminist Art Movements
Feminist art movements emerged between 1970 and 1990 as a response to the exclusion of women from the art world. Women artists challenged the traditional male-dominated art space by setting up alternative display spaces, experimenting with various media forms, and focusing on themes like childcare, women's health, and domestic labor. They formed collectives, produced bold visual statements, and engaged in political activism against issues such as the Vietnam War and nuclear disarmament. This collective action aimed to counter the notion of the solitary male genius artist, paving the way for more egalitarian approaches to art making.
