Medea Insurrection, the

This important volume gathers 36 female artists from behind the Iron Curtain between the years 1961 and 1989, attempting a contextualisation of nonconformist, female art production in the Eastern Bloc. Exploring how these artists produced work within the terms of mythology, protest and self-definition, The Medea Insurrection rewrites the male-dominated narrative of postwar European art.
