Following many years dominated by a handful of governing ideas (e.g. freedom of expression, form over content), the period referred to as the post-modernist era burst onto the scene with new forms and new schools. During this period, generally defined as beginning in the late seventies, women were front and centre. Quiet and unassuming, indeed barely tolerated, through the forties and fifties, in the sixties women were pioneers toiling on the fringes. Suddenly they were in the limelight, producing art that was increasingly vibrant and, in many cases, disturbing. |
