Shifting the Gaze: Painting and Feminism September 12, January 30, 2011

'Over the past fifty years, feminists have defied an art world dominated by men, deploying direct action and theory while making fundamental changes in their everyday lives. Shifting the Gaze: Painting and Feminism explores the widespread influence of feminist practice on the styles and methods of painting from the 1960s to the present. The provocative paintings on view here embody the tension between individual expression and collective politics, between a traditional medium and radical action.'

This is quoted from the website. I will however see if I can get hold of an exhibition catalogue so I can consider in more depth the "provocative paintings".

Painting workshop feedback.

I just wanted to thank everyone that attended the workshops on Tuesday and Wednesday. My ambition was for a re-newed excitement for painting. I certainly went away with this. I think it would have been useful to explore supports for painting and various priming methods in more detail. In the meantime The John Jones web site is worth looking at for this information. I have added this information under art suppliers. Please make any suggestions that you may have for how this type of workshop can be improved, I would be very grateful for your feedback. Please find some of the initial painting experiments made on Tuesday. I look forward to seeing how the work progresses on my next visit in a few weeks time. Sarah
