Feminist Art Roundup: Retrospectives, Group Shows, and Historical Revisions

Artcritical's feminism tag aggregates multiple reviews and previews of feminist-themed exhibitions in New York. A retrospective of an unnamed artist at Mitchell-Innes & Nash (through November 22) examines life through feminist engagement. Another show, "Les Biches," was recently on view on the Lower East Side. A Chelsea exhibition runs through December 22. A survey of early films and photographs by an influential feminist artist is noted. A painterly, sumptuous show of work by women is highlighted. New videos by emerging and established artists explore feminism's overlapping modes. One review describes an artist as "this Olympian of feminist art" who "sprints toward fire." Another piece features Marie Antoinette and Vigée Le Brun telling critics to "take a hike." The tag covers contrasting approaches and messages in two recent shows.
