| Summary |
"Refuting the notion that there is a specifically female way of creating art, and dubious of any generalizing notion of "feminist art practices", Isaak nevertheless argues that contemporary art under the influence of feminism is providing the momentum for a comic critique of key assumptions about art, art history and the role of the artist" |
