n.paradoxa Booklist
Search by Country
Notes: Monographs and individual artists' exhibition catalogues are not included in this list, except where they are explicitly feminist and provide a key role model for feminist art practice. You can look at exhibitions and anthologies separately by moving to those pages.
For authors' last names use capital letter first. For those beginning with "A", type "A" or use the first 3 letters of their last name.
The country search uses full English names, e.g. The Netherlands, except for USA and UK. "International" (use Capital "I") is the category used for projects where artists from more than 3 countries are involved. Books and exhibitions under "International" are in addition to those listed as individual countries. New sections have been added for geographical regions/ continents: Asia, Africa, Pacific, Middle East, South America, Scandanavia. These categories are in addition to individual countries listed. So, for searches in Africa, look also in Nigeria and Egypt.
The title search is limited to words used in the title, it does not provide a keyword or subject search facility. This search is for one word only, no boolean (multiple) searches are supported. Artists' last names can also be searched in the title section, if they are in a book or exhibition title.

This exhibition catalogue documents and brings together the work of this artist, with interviews, to present her working methods, source materials and strategies looking particularly at the contradictions within economic and social history that she explores in her installations. Examples of her approach include research on the Chinese Mosuo matriarchal system for Export Matriarchy (2007); a video installation about interiors and domestic abuse where the politics of representation in Vermeer's leisured women is contrasted with that of his contemporary Geertruyd Roghman who painted working women Fuck Patriarchy! (2004)) and her study of Finnish Ingrian Laments as the basis for her work (Lament, 2010).

Gender Check Reader: Art and Theory in Eastern Europe Koln: Walter Konig, 2010 ISBN: 978-3-86560-883-3 ISBN:978-3-902490-71-1
The Gender Check exhibition (2009-2010) was the result of Erste's substantial research project across the countries of (former) Eastern/Central Europe. This reader of previously published materials is an additional and highly valuable accompaniment to the large-scale telephone directory of the exhibition catalogue which commissioned new essays (See also n.paradoxa vol. 25 p.90-93). While the focus of the reader is an examination of gender theory in Eastern Europe and looks at both masculinity and feminity, feminist art produced by women artists is well-represented. Six essays first published in n.paradoxa have been included.

Rudolfine Lackner (ed) Names are Shaping up nicely! Gendered nomenclature: in Art, Language and Philosophy Vienna: Vereinigung bildender Kunstlerinnen Osterreichs, 2008 ISBN: 978-3-200-01425-1
What is in a name for an artist? How do the names for objects, facts and people identify how we construct the reality of the world around us? How do women artists deal with changes to their name on marriage, after divorce or to create their professional identity, using pseudonyms? Is feminism a name for a movement, an all-encompassing ideology, the name given to an attitude or a means to signal political change? These are some of the intriguing questions tackled by the discussions in this publication which arose from several panel discussions organised by VBKO on art, cyberfeminism and the question of naming: interestingly, strongly influenced by Wittgenstein (e.g. Anna Aloisia Moser's essay). Contributors include academics, artists and writers from Austria, Mexico, Germany and Serbia, Netherlands and USA.

Silvia Eiblmayr Zehn Jahre: Galerie im Taxispalais / Ten Years: Galerie im Taxispalais Dokumentation 1999-2008 Innsbruck: Galerie im Taxispalais, 2008
Text in German and English ISBN: 978-3-7082-3283-8
Documenting 11 years of work at the Galerie im Taxispalais by one of the most outstanding feminist curators in Europe (who is also responsible for the Austrian pavilion this year at the Venice Biennale) this is an unusual book. Eiblmayr's work has contributed to the international reputation of this publicly-funded gallery in Innsbruck, but under her leadership, the gallery has also resolutely put forward exhibitions as arguments and as interventions in what is seen or known in current contemporary art debates, deliberately and thoughtfully furthering debates or reconsidering key political/aesthetic questions: on leisure/survival, on work (Arbeit), on the concept of Suture, and on The Wounded Diva. Eiblmayr also organised many significant one-person shows of Eastern European women artists: Milica Tomic, Sanja Ivekovic, Jasmila Zbanic, Ana Lupas, Greta Bratescu, Sejla Kameric, in a programme in which half the solo exhibitions were by women. These included exhibitions of VALIE EXPORT, Eva Schlegel, Dorit Margreiter, Atusko Tanaka, Michaela Melian, Helena Almeida, Ketty La Rocca, Ellen Gallagher, Laura Horelli, Carol Rama, Charlotte Posensnska, Carola Dertnig, Esther Stocker, Isa Genzken, Ulrike Lienbacher, Charlotte Salomon, Hedrun Holzfeind, Katerina Seda and Monika Schwitte.

Secession, 17 Sept.-11 Nov. 2004: Koln: Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther Konig, 2004 ISBN: 3-88375-894-9
Three projects, as installations with video, form the basis of this artist's exhibition. The first, an inadequate history of conceptual art, offers a counter history to the re-evaluation of conceptual art in the 1990s and combines 22 recordings of artists discussing their experience of an exhibition or performance of conceptual art between 1965-1975. The soundtracks are accompanied by videos of the hands of the anonymous interviewees as they speak. The second work, Like Looking Away focuses on the experience of shopping as understood through 10 women aged 18-34. Their words are retold by one actress, imitating the timbre and accent of their different voices. Photos of the women themselves looking away were also shown.The final piece, Proximity to Power, juxtaposes interviews with men who support and work for "powerful" men - politicians, investors, or power brokers - as they analyse their relation to power with images based on the representation of power as understood from 40 boys aged 7-11. The catalogue contains analytical essays about these works by Rosalyn Deutsche, Mignon Nixon and Stephan Schmidt-Wulffen, and an interview between the artist and Hal Foster.
