Understanding Feminist Art
So, what is actually meant by Feminist Art?
Feminist art is art by artists who were made consciously in the light of development in feminist art theory in the early 1970s.
Explanation of Feminist Art
In 1971 Art historian Linda Nochlin published innovative essays why there were no great female artists? In it he investigated social and economic factors that had prevented talented women from reaching the same status as their male colleagues.
In the 1980s, art historians such as Griselda Pollock and Rozsika Parker will go further, to examine the language of art history with terms published by gender such as ‘old master’ and ‘masterpiece’. They questioned the central place of naked women in the western canon, asking why men and women were represented very differently. In his book in 1972 Ways of seeing Marxist critic John Berger has concluded ‘Men look at women. Women watched themselves seen ‘. In other words, Western art replicates the unequal relationship that has been embedded in society.
In what is sometimes known as the first wave of feminist art, female artists enjoy feminine experiences, explore the image of vagina and menstrual blood, pose naked as a goddess and challenging using media such as embroidery that has been considered ‘women’s work’. One of the great iconic works from this feminist art phase is Judy Chicago’s the Dinner Party, 1974-9.
Then feminist artists reject this approach and try to reveal the origin of our ideas about femininity and femininity. They pursue the idea of femininity as a mask – a series of poses adopted by women to adjust to the social expectations of female.
