    Feminist and Postmodernism


    What is Feminist Art?
    A stage in art history?

    A movement?

    Or a wholesale shift in ways of doing things?

    Surrealism?
    Not as a style of art that can be seen but
    rather

    Feminist and Postmodernism


    Feminist Art declared that meaning and experience
    were as valuable as form; Postmodernism rejected
    the rigid form and style of Modern Art.

    The represented of universality.

    The ideas of gender, identity, and form.


    Using tools like performance art, video, and other artistic
    xpression that would come to be significant in Postmodernism

    he artist as part of society, not working separately.

    Backlash
    Women who were artists rejected feminist
    readings of their work.
    Essentialism?
    They thought each individual womans
    experience was claimed to be universal,
    even if the artist had not asserted this
    Man hating or Lesbian?

    Who is the artist?

    Who is the artist?

    Who is the artist?

    Who is the artist?

    The artists
    They thought I was a
    Surrealist,but I wasn't.
    I never painted dreams.
    I painted my own reality.
