Résumé
Women in Revolt ! is a timely exploration of the work and lived experiences of a postwar generation of women artists that have largely been omitted from art historical narratives. Surfacing the wealth and diversity of work created in the UK during the 1970s and 80s, a period of seismic social and political charge, it demonstrates how women's needs were marginalised within mainstream culture and reveals how these artists used radical ideas and methods to confront issues that will resonate with contemporary audiences - from access to healthcare and class struggles to ecological disaster, racism and misogyny.
It is a celebration of a highly creative, politically engaged and determined community of women that paved the way for future generations and, ultimately, changed the face of British culture.
