Summary "This book, however, comes to the term 'feminist art' from a different direction. As editors, we have approached 'art' as a dynamic set of material and theoretical practices in the realm of culture, and 'feminism' as an equally dynamic set of activist and theoretical practices in the realm of politics. Given that culture and politics constantly intersect and work upon each other, 'feminist art' for us is the space and place - the site - where feminist politics and the domain of art-making intersect"-- Provided by publisher
