Addressing the Other Woman: Textual Correspondences in Feminist Art and Writing

By (author) Kimberly Lamm





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

This book analyses how three artists – Adrian Piper, Nancy Spero and Mary Kelly – worked with the visual dimensions of language in the 1960s and 1970s. These artists used text and images of writing to challenge female stereotypes, addressing viewers and asking them to participate in the project of imagining women beyond familiar words and images of subordination. The book explores this dimension of their work through the concept of ‘the other woman’, a utopian wish to reach women and correspond with them across similarities and differences. To make the artwork’s aspirations more concrete, it places the artists in correspondence with three writers – Angela Davis, Valerie Solanas, and Laura Mulvey – who also addressed the limited range of images through which women are allowed to become visible. -- .
