Description
Feminism. Art. Capitalism is a provocative exploration of how feminist theory intersects with artistic practice within capitalist economies. Angela Dimitrakaki interrogates the ways in which art movements and feminist activism have been shaped by, and have responded to, market forces and economic structures.
The book challenges simplistic narratives about artistic autonomy and feminist resistance, instead offering nuanced analysis of the contradictions inherent in creating and consuming art under capitalism. Dimitrakaki examines how contemporary artists navigate these tensions, questioning whether authentic feminist artistic practice is possible within capitalist frameworks.
Through theoretical analysis and case studies, the author provides critical perspectives on commodification, labor, representation, and institutional critique. This work is essential reading for scholars of feminist theory, art history, cultural studies, and political economy.
