“Women Artists Together is an ambitious and significant contribution to art historical scholarship and the field of feminist art history.”—Philomena Epps, Oxford Art Journal“This is an urgent, important book. Tobin explores the productive, sometimes uncomfortable, moments where solidarity, collectivity and conversation met disagreement and difference as artists working in the USA and UK sought to forge new communities and ways of working, thinking, and living together.”—Jo Applin, author of Lee Lozano“Tobin’s work rescues women’s artistic subjectivity from the tomb of historical erasure without essentialism, she writes about 'women artists' as a political category – noting the complexity and nuance in their work with care, with generosity, and an unmatched theoretical precision.”—Lola Olufemi, author of Feminism, Interrupted“Amy Tobin offers a fluent, readable and important history of complex groupings, intense debates, diverse artworks and agonistic cultures of difference that formed the historic moment when art was transformed by a new consciousness—the Women’s Liberation Movement. This new political energy collided with all that was new and exciting, critical and challenging in post-1968 art practice: performance, moving image, photography, installation, conceptual practice, and most radically, the dynamic of collaboration and collective art making and a confrontation with differences and their often painful, but always creative, challenges.”—Griselda Pollock, University of Leeds
