Tiivistelmä
The volume Objects of Feminism, edited by Maija Timonen and Josefine Wikström, Helsinki 2017, includes contributions by Hannah Black, Rose-Anne Gush, Lizzie Homersham, Nina Power, Hannah Proctor, Maija Timonen, Cara Tolmie and Josefine Wikström.
Objects of feminism are the subject/object relations of contemporary capitalism; chunks of fleshed-out knowledge, dead and living bodies invested with ideologies and more. The contributors to this book approach feminism from a range of angles, relating to its artistic, philosophical and political significance. Their texts dislodge “the object” from some of its current moorings, putting it to various uses as a prism or vanishing mediator for the energies animating each text.
