Feminist Art

This is an exciting time in the history of feminist art, as evidenced by the
recent opening of the Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art at the
Brooklyn museum, the Feminist Futures conference at MOMA, the WACK! show at
the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, the National Museum of Women in
the Arts, the establishment of the Feminist Art Project, and issues focusing
on feminism and art in the National Women's Studies Association Journal
(Spring 2007) and Signs (Winter 2008). Such flourishing institutional
discourse would seem to suggest, more than 35 years after the publication of
Linda Nochlin's "Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?" women artists,
that some parity is finally being achieved. Yet, as artists and activists
participating in each of these venues note, women continue to be
underrepresented in the shows and collections of museums, galleries, and
collectors. More importantly, women artists of color,
gay/lesbian/trans/bi-gendered artists, and global women's issues continue to
be marginalized within many of feminism's institutionalized venues and
discourses.

What is the role of feminist art today? What does it look like? Who does it
include and who does it exclude? How can it continue to impact the social
and cultural values surrounding gender, race, and sexuality today?

Theories, critiques, histories, counter-histories, and counter-memories of
feminist art, past, present, and future are welcome.
