Description

Journey back to the revolutionary 1960s and 70s where a “secret history” of feminist art unfolded. From its origins in civil rights protests, !Women Art Revolution charts the explosive developments in women’s art and illuminates how the tenacity and courage of its pioneering artists made it one of the most significant creative movements of the late 20th century. Featuring a score by a Sleater-Kinney's Carrie Brownstein and appearances by Miranda July, Yoko Ono, Marina Abramovic and more.
