Zusammenfassung:Birthing Angel of Carriance / Bracha L. Ettinger -- Birth Rites Collection : imagining an activist art collection / Nora Heidorn -- Global scream! Polish feminist protest art in Berlin / Anna Krenz
"Focusing on art practices that advocate, raise consciousness and educate about the human right to reproductive health, this book analyses and compares forms of feminist artivism to interrogate bodily rights while closely examining the lived experiences of women and their right of free choice. The transnational framing engages with resurgent imperialist and colonial ambitions across global politics and with the attempts at disrupting these positionings by prioritising feminist care as instrumental for democracy and social justice. Key foci of this book include the ways in which arts activism operates, and its strategies and methods related to, for example, the types of artistic practice employed, approaches to dissemination and reach, and engaging the public. The analysis of these topics interrogates the potential of arts activism to work while other forms of activism may stumble, leading social change in thinking, practice and, finally, legislation. Countries covered include Finland, Poland, Portugal, Latvia, the United Kingdom, Chile, Brazil, USA and Australia. The book will be of interest to students and scholars studying art history, gender studies, and women's studies"--
