Doing Feminism

Women's Art and Feminist Criticism in Australia

Doing Feminism represents over 220 artists and groups with 370 colour illustrations punctuated by extracts from artists' statements, curatorial writing and critique. Tracking networks of art practice, exhibitions, protest and critical thought over several generations, Marsh demonstrates the innovation and power of women's art and the ways in which it has influenced and changed the contemporary art landscape in Australia and internationally.

Lisa Anderson:

Dancing the End of Days.

Lisa Anderson’s exhibition Beguiling presents a poetic and performative investigation into the current climate catastrophe that humankind faces right here, right now. Like all good stories it is multilayered and nuanced: photographs and videos documenting actions, figures ghosting the landscape, words floating across screens, huge icebergs melting into the sea. Each visitor will take away haunting visual images and prose that will resonate in their memories and will be difficult to shake off.

Plural Selves

and the Art of David Rosetzky

In a time of cultural anxiety, David Rosetzky creates entrusted spaces by establishing relationships between himself and others, initiated through conversations he has with the people who appear in his works. He does this with a professional eye that speaks to art history and concepts such as modernism/post-modernism, gender difference and performativity while maintaining a minimal aesthetic that is inclusive and multi-dimensional, often involving collaborations with other artists and professionals. A Rosetzky performance, video, installation work might include dancers, choreographers, dramaturges, designers and actors, as well as people who have no experience in the arts at all.
