Beskrivelse
Feminism is a social justice movement that aims to end sexism, sexist exploitation, and oppression - and to change society for the better, for all.
Alongside class and race, gender fundamentally shapes our perceptions and beliefs. But issues of sex and gender are still largely ignored in many museums and galleries: the inequalities that exist in society are replicated in museum practice. And, in turn, these practices reinforce and reaffirm social inequality.
Anonymous Was A Woman is a 300-page positive, inspiring, practical reader, focusing on actions being taken within museums (including the Art Gallery of Ontario, Detroit Institute of Arts, Minneapolis Institute of Art, National Museums Liverpool, V&A and the Whitechapel Gallery) to address these issues, as well as new initiatives aiming to impact and change museums from the outside.
Featuring carefully selected texts from the two-volume Feminism and Museums, this book has a new Introduction by editor Jenna C Ashton, and each text has been reviewed and updated by the author.
