Description de l'ouvrage :
Recent decades have seen the art gallery become an increasingly important exhibition space for the moving image. This book sees leading scholars bring contemporary perspectives to the contexts, practices and concerns of women artists working with film and video, addressing both the historical realm of the avant-garde as well as feminist art practices today. Its chronological breadth is matched by its wide international scope, branching out from white and Western perspectives to look at artists from Middle Eastern, East Asian and African American backgrounds and from a variety of cultural and technological environments. In doing so, the book explores a worldwide renewal of feminist articulacy that provides new challenges and opportunities for women artists working with the moving image. Chapters discuss topics such as women, work and play on the artist's screen; representation and receptions; how multiculturalism can be linked to experimental and activist film history; the function and nature of the essay film and feminist curatorial practices. The growing crowd of artists, archivists and curators of moving image cultures, as well as the students and scholars who study them, will find much to inspire and engage within these pages edited by a foremost light in the field.

Revue de Presse :
Women Artists, Feminism, and the Moving Image offers up a fascinating addition to theories that inform feminist film criticism as it applies to video art. Laura Mulvey, the éminence grise of feminist film studies, provides a preface, and for the collection itself Reynolds brought together essays, interviews, and even a lengthy poem. The contributors are diverse as well, including scholars, film curators, journalists, and artists. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals. - CHOICE
