'An intellectual tour-de-force' - Griselda Pollock, Professor Emerita, University of LeedsFeminism. Art. Capitalism. calls for a revolutionary rethinking of the feminist struggle and its relation to art.Championing Marxist feminism and focusing on the layers of capitalist hegemony, the book considers the exploitation of enthusiasm in art’s promise of a self-determined subject, the ideological capture of feminism, modernity’s attachment to technology (and its magic), the historical context and impact of postmodernism, and the question of class and social reproduction.Provocative and uncompromising, Feminism. Art. Capitalism. offers an indispensable guide for art history, theory, and practice – inviting readers to confront what claiming art and feminism as sites of resistance actually entails.
