Marsha Meskimmon is Professor of Art History and Theory, and Director of the Institute of Advanced Studies at Loughborough University. She is the author of a number of books on feminisms and the arts, including Contemporary Art and the Cosmopolitan Imagination (2010) and Women Making Art: History, Subjectivity, Aesthetics (2003).

The story of Transnational Feminisms, Transversal Politics and Art will shake up our understanding of the relationship between aesthetics and judgement, art and politics. There are very few writers who have both the courage to zoom out and survey the wider cultural forces that shape our collective belonging, and the patience to zoom in to the material details of artistic practice. In this fractured and globalizing world, Meskimmon has a generous and penetrating voice that needs to be listened to.Professor Nikos PapastergiadisDirector of the Research Unit of Public Cultures University of MelbourneAn impressive and ambitious reckoning with the political affects of transnational feminism and the arts, Transnational Feminisms, Transversal Politics and Art is a timely undertaking that demonstrates how transversal politics, non-binary and intersectional thinking can help us to locate imaginative practices as fundamental to transformative and lasting political change. Meskimmon carefully delineates the ways in which art has been, can be and will always be the vehicle in which transformative dialogues across geopolitical borders take place most effectively and with most care. The book is a tour de force of imaginative possibilities for political transformations. Professor Dorothy PriceDepartment of History of Art, University of BristolEditor, Art History
