Description
Basia Sliwinska's Feminist Visual Activism and the Body explores how contemporary feminist visual activism engages with current social and political concerns through the lens of embodiment. The book examines activist strategies, practices, and resilience techniques in intersectional and transnational frameworks, scrutinising how the arts enable civil and political resilience. Drawing on feminist art historical critique, Sliwinska interrogates how the arts respond to issues such as equality, decolonisation, social justice, democracy, precarity, and vulnerability. This book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, visual culture, fine arts, women's studies, gender studies, feminism, and cultural studies. Through its analysis, Feminist Visual Activism and the Body sheds light on the role of the arts in reforming and improving society, particularly in response to disaster capitalism.
