Title Book Review: 'Under the Skin: Feminist Art and Art Histories from the Middle East and North Africa Today Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet Third Text Media type Online Article - Other Country/Territory Ireland Date 1/08/21 Description
"Under the Skin represents an important step in the scholarship of cultural production in the MENA region as it poses several questions about the social and political role played by women artists in patriarchal and formerly colonised contexts, as well as the different and often contradictory narratives on art and feminism when they are conveyed on a local or a global level. The solid framing by the editors offer a variety of well-researched essays about renowned or emerging contemporary artists, written by both accomplished and younger scholars, provide the reader with a panoramic view of current research and art production, as well as with methodological tools and theoretical frameworks for further investigation... Under the Skin constitutes a major contribution to the scholarship in the field of cultural production in the Middle East and North Africa and attests to the need for further attention to be given to the feminist visual culture produced in the region."Producer/Author Nadia Radwan Persons Mary Kelly
