Requests:  0 Summary:  "In this dazzlingly original reassessment of women's stories, bodies, and art, Lauren Elkin--the celebrated author of Fĺneuse--explores the ways in which feminist artists have taken up the challenge of their work and how they not only react against the patriarchy but redefine their own aesthetic aims. How do we tell the truth about our experiences as bodies? What is the language, what are the materials, that we need to transcribe them? And what are the unique questions facing those engaged with female bodies, queer bodies, sick bodies, racialized bodies?" -- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 704.9424 El Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 704.9424 Elkin Checked In Add Copy to MyList
