Feminist Art Lives
Welcome to Feminist Art Lives, a new podcast series about the encounter between art and feminism across Britain and Ireland, in the words of the artists and creatives themselves.
In each episode, researchers from the Feminist Art Making Histories (FAMH) Project explore stories and insights from the newly created FAMH archive of oral history interviews with artists, curators and writers who were active in the 1970s, 80s and 90s.
They uncover new stories of art and activism from a moment when everything was questioned and the category of art was tested and remade.
From the art school to D.I.Y. gallery, the kitchen table to the museum, the interviews reveal the vitality of artistic experiment and the tactics and strategies artists and creatives found to share their work beyond the mainstream.
Alive to difference and disagreement within feminism, each episode shows how artists, makers and creatives forged paths through divisive issues, making work that continues to help us understand the world and its inequities.
Listen to a critical generation of artists and thinkers whose voices who are rarely heard, and who remain less well-represented in public museums and art histories.
Whether you’re interested in art or feminism, or you love listening to people talk about their lives, prepare to be inspired and moved by these remarkable women.
