I went to the #CaroleeSchneemann exhibition at the #Barbican yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. There’s a lot to see and an awful lot to take in. Highly recommended.
Carolee Schneemann was of course challenging the domination of the art world by men - what she referred to as the Art Stud Club - decades ago. So why does it feel like it's only relatively recently that this kind of critique has entered the mainstream, with publications such as Katy Hessel's The Story of Art Without Men, and before that her thegreatwomenartists Instagram account?
Saw the Carolee Schneemann Body Politics exhibition at the Barbican. I'd recommend it. Good to see a performance artist acknowledged like this (although Schneemann identified more as a painter).
Stelarc next?
If you want to catch the Schneemann, you need to hurry. There's only today and tomorrow left as the exhibition ends 8th January.
