She produced confrontational album covers for the legendary anarchist band Crass and later went on to do the same for Northern indie legends the Charlatans, among others. More recently, her work was recognised the day after Donald Trump's 2016 election victory, when the front page of the \u003ci\u003eDaily Mirror\u003c\/i\u003e ran her 1989 painting\u003ci\u003e Oh America\u003c\/i\u003e, which shows the Statue of Liberty, head in hands. This is the first book to critically assess an extensive range of Vaucher’s work. It examines her unique position connecting avant-garde art movements, counterculture, punk and even contemporary street art.  While Vaucher rejects all ‘isms’, her work offers a unique take on the history of feminist art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58841155142006,"sku":"9781526147912","price":24.53,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_38980108.jpg?v=1790654078","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781526147912-gee-vaucher","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
