Feminist Art in Resistance : Aesthetics, Methods and Politics of Art in Turkey, Paperback / softback Book

Feminist Art in Resistance : Aesthetics, Methods and Politics of Art in Turkey Paperback / softback

Part of the Sociology of the Arts series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book provides a thorough interdisciplinary analysis of the ways in which artists have engaged with political and feminist grassroots movements to characterise a new direction in the production of feminist art.

The authors conceptualise feminist art in Turkey through the lens of feminist philosophy by offering a historical analysis of how feminism and art interacts, analysing emerging feminist artwork and exploring the ways in which feminist art as a form opens alternative political spaces of social collectivities and dissent, to address epistemic injustices.

The book also explores how the global art and feminist movements (particularly in Europe) have manifested themselves in the art scenery of Turkey and argues that feminist art has transformed into a form of political and protest art which challenges the hegemonic masculinity dominating the aesthetic debates and political sphere.

It is an invaluable reading for students and scholars of sociology of art, gender studies and political sociology.
