A neglected area of publishing in the visual arts is that of women's perceptions and strategies for sustaining their careers as artists. This book reports on research which investigated the formative life experiences of nine women and how they perceived their positions as students, artists, art teachers and family members in relation to the discourses dominant in their lives. The study aimed to identify new discursive practices undertaken by the women to contest their positioning. It used feminist poststructuralist methodology that acknowledged the notion of constitution and positioning of the subject in discourse. This innovative methodology is valuable for researchers in a range of disciplines not only in studying careers of women but also other marginalised groups. Because of the reliance on the women's voices, the text contributes rich pictures of women's lives and their attempts to negotiate their careers in workplaces they described as battle grounds. Consequently the text has a wider appeal to readers interested in women's careers and art practice. experiences of the women who were able to challenge and restructure constraining discourses. They utilised a range of strategies to negotiate obstacles and, based on the women's experiences and the literature, the author is then able to propose further possible strategies.

"Feminist Art Criticism: An anthology is a diverse and provocative collection of essays written by distinguished art critics, historians, and artists. Arranged chronologically, the anthology provides an overview of a continuous feminist discourse in art from the early 1970s to the present. Often controversial, the writings represent a diversity of approaches -- polemical, Marxist, lyrical, and poststructuralist, among others. The essays, many of which are not readily available elsewhere, cover a wide range of concerns. Opening with Maryse Holder's blunt and powerful look at the art of female sexuality as self-discovery, the collection moves through a feminist approach to erotic art by Carol Duncan, essays on feminist or 'gynergenic' art criticism by Moira Roth, Cassandra L. Langer, and Joanna Frueh, a chapter on the appearance of the Goddess in contemporary women's art by Gloria Feman Orenstein, studies of Chicana and Black women artists by Shifra Goldman and Lowery Stokes Sims, to 'The Last Essay on Feminist Criticism' by Arlene Raven. Contributions by Lise Vogel, Judith Barry, Sandy Flitterman-Lewis, Teresa de Lauretis, and Whitney Chadwick complete the collection with intriguing topics ranging from the representation of women in art to women as artmakers. Taken together, all of the essays show that feminist art criticism is a complex and evolving discipline. The writings range from those that focus critically on the male-dominated culture to those that articulate women-centered art and criticism. These essays point to the need to continually rethink the condition of the creative realm and the status of women in relationship to art. They show that though there have been moves away from a white, patriarchal mainstream, and while some feminist interests (such as gender deconstruction) have even been absorbed into the mainstream, the transformation of art suggested by Feminist Art Criticism is still incomplete." -- Provided by publisher

Until now the bulk of the literature about the veil has been written by outsiders who do not themselves veil. This literature often assumes a condescending tone about veiled women, assuming that they are making uninformed decisions choices about veiling makes them subservient to a patriarchal culture and religion. “Rethinking Muslim Women and the Veil” offers an alternative viewpoint, based on the thoughts and experiences of Muslim women themselves. This is the first time a clear and concise book-length argument has been made for the compatibility between veiling and modernity. Katherine Bullock uncovers positive aspects of the veil that are frequently not perceived by outsiders. “Rethinking Muslim Women and the Veil” looks at the colonial roots of the negative Western stereotype of the veil. It presents interviews with Muslim women to discover their thoughts and experiences with the veil in Canada. The book also offers a positive theory of veiling. The author argues that in consumer capitalist cultures, women can find wearing the veil a liberation from the stifling beauty game that promotes unsafe and unhealthy ideal body images for women. This book also includes an extensive bibliography on topics related to Muslim women and the veil.

In dit onderzoek wordt nagegaan welke betrokkenheden en identificaties met de herkomst - en vestigingsdiaspora leven bij drie generaties Afro-Surinaamse remigrantenvrouwen. Betrokkenheden en identificaties met diaspora worden hierbij opgevat als talige praktijken van roots en routes. De roots verwijzen hierbij naar voorstellingen, wensen en dromen van de vertellers. Bij routes moet worden gedacht aan de verbindingen die transmigranten maken en het ontstaan van transculturele werkelijkheden. Hierbij is (re)creatie van creolisering in multietnische samenlevingen een centraal begrip. Betrokkenheden en identificaties met verschillende diaspora - evenals specifieke invullingen van vrouwelijkheid - dragen in andere woorden in belangrijke mate bij aan de creoliteit en identiteit van Afro-Surinaamse (re)migrantenvrouwen in Suriname en Nederland.

This book provides a thorough interdisciplinary analysis of the ways in which artists have engaged with political and feminist grassroots movements to characterise a new direction in the production of feminist art. The authors conceptualise feminist art in Turkey through the lens of feminist philosophy by offering a historical analysis of how feminism and art interacts, analysing emerging feminist artwork and exploring the ways in which feminist art as a form opens alternative political spaces of social collectivities and dissent, to address epistemic injustices. The book also explores how the global art and feminist movements (particularly in Europe) have manifested themselves in the art scenery of Turkey and argues that feminist art has transformed into a form of political and protest art which challenges the hegemonic masculinity dominating the aesthetic debates and political sphere. It is an invaluable reading for students and scholars of sociology of art, gender studies and political sociology.

In recent years, debates over culture and education have entered the public consciousness as never before. Politicians, bureaucrats, and scholars have credited these endeavors with the capacity to influence matters ranging from public morality to national productivity. Trend examines points at which art and learning intersect in both traditional and nontraditional settings and offers a variety of alternatives for the construction of a new cultural pedagogy. He argues that we need to redefine concepts like art, literature, and education, to integrate them more fully into our lives. On one hand, Trend uses a critical approach to examine how cultural work and pedagogy intersect within a range of discourses such as Marxist, feminist, deconstructionist and postcolonial. Yet on the other, he focuses on the use of specific examples of cultural practice within and outside the classroom to emphasize the importance of action as well as philosophy to bring about social change. Trend provides a theoretical overview of the ideological battles over texts and their discursive contexts and then analyzes how cultural education has evolved in such settings as the school, the university, and the community. He concludes with a discussion of pedagogy and democracy which suggests a range of possible resolutions.
