Defiant Women

50 artists and their activism
Powerful protest art from 50 groundbreaking artists

From equality to climate change, civil rights and war, art has been used to affect change, bring awareness and create visibility for centuries, and these are the women who fought to get their voices heard.

Fully illustrated with 70 artworks from 50 art heroines, this book showcases the most famous examples of women's art activism and uncovers the hidden stories behind some of our lesser-known protest art. Covering a range of mediums and causes, this book discusses the women who used art to fight causes from suffrage to social media, looking at how they made their art, why their work is so important, and the impact they continue to have on the world.

Features work by Kathe Kollwitz, Claude Cahun, Barbara Kruger, Guerrilla Girls, Ana Mendieta, Nan Goldin, Judy Chicago, Paula Rego, Shirin Neshat, Laia Abril, Linder and Yayoi Kusama.
