Reviews
"Wark wonderfully weaves together theory and practice, documenting both well-known and little-known art work through a nuanced presentation of feminist and performance history." Peggy Phelan, Stanford University "Wark has done a terrific job of navigating the enormously complex array of feminist theory and criticism produced over the thirty years of her study, with a highly impressive perceptive analysis of its contradictions, complexities, and shifts." Bridget Elliott, John Abbott Visual Arts Centre, Western Ontario
