Feminist+Art

Feminist art of the 1960s (and by "the 1960s," I really mean from about the late fifties to the early seventies) usually focused on examining and, many times, overturning traditional notions of femininity, sexuality, and the many roles of women. Many feminist artists struggled to be able to define themselves as both women and artists, and this internal conflict was often manifested in their work.

Feminist art can be divided into three section: painting, drawing, and collages; music; and installations and videos.
