It's been a while since I've updated, sooo here it goes,
Women's Art!
Talking about the feminist movements,
Women started to want their art more seperated from men, but once art is seperated between genders then people's interest in womens work diminishes.
- Essentials ( identity)
- personal
- body
- sexuality
- vaginal iconography
- afirm female attributes
- Material/techniques unique to women
- sewing
- jewelry
- Activist (activism)
- performance
- sisterhood
- Distinguish art of men and women
This lecture was pretty interesting since we focused on art made by women. I'm probably a little biased but I don't think that women get enough recognition. Thats sort of what I got from the lecture is that women are important, but they still arent as recognized as great artists. I don't think people do it on purpose, we just havn't moved on from past cultural thinkings. It was great to have a femal photographer come and speak. Her photographs of women in natural poses were very interesting to see and proves that women can make great work.
