Redstockings
Redstockings, also known as Redstockings of the Women's Liberation Movement, is a radical feminist nonprofit that was founded in January 1969 in New York City, whose goal is "To Defend and Advance the Women's Liberation Agenda". The group's name is derived from ''bluestocking'', a term used to disparage feminist intellectuals of earlier centuries, and ''red'', for its association with the Left-wing politics, revolutionary left. History The group was started by Ellen Willis and Shulamith Firestone in January 1969, after the breakup of New York Radical Women. Other early members included Kathie Sarachild, Patricia Mainardi, Barbara Leon, Lucinda Cisler, Irene Peslikis, and Alix Kates Shulman. Firestone soon split with the group to form New York Radical Feminists, along with Anne Koedt. Rita Mae Brown was also briefly a member during 1970. The group was mainly active in New York City, where most of the group's members resided, and later also in Gainesville, Florida. A group called Re ...

Women Art Historians
Women were professionally active in the academic discipline of art history in the nineteenth century and participated in the important shift early in the century that began involving an "emphatically corporeal visual subject", with Vernon Lee as a notable example. It is argued that in the twentieth century women art historians (and curators), by choosing to study women artists, "dramatically" "increased their visibility". It has been written that women artists pre-1974 were historically one of two groups; women art historians and authors who self-consciously address high school audiences through the publication of textbooks. The relative "newness" of this field of study for women, paired with the possibility of interdisciplinary focus, emphasizes the importance of visibility of all global women in the art history field. Education and employment In the United States professional, academic employment for women art historians was, by the early 1970s, not commensurate with the number o ...

Some Living American Women Artists (collage)
''Some Living American Women Artists'' also referred to as ''Some Living American Women Artists/Last Supper'' is a collage by American artist Mary Beth Edelson created during the second wave feminist movement. The central portion is an image based on ''Leonardo da Vinci’s'' 15th-century mural ''Last Supper''. Edelson replaced the faces of Christ's disciples with cut-out photographs of American women artists. She surrounded the central image with additional photographs of American women artists. The work is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art. Edelson intended the collage to ''"identify and commemorate women artists, who were getting little recognition at the time, by presenting them as the grand subject - while spoofing the patriarchy for cutting women out of positions of power and authority."'' A lithograph edition of 50 prints was subsequently created. A numbered print is in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Artists included in the central ...
