Summary: 
Azkuna Zentroa organizes the second edition of the course Feminist perspectives in artistic productions and theories of ar.

Co-directed by Lourdes Méndez and Xabier Arakistain, this course brings together speakers from different countries, disciplines and generations who analyses the artistic production field of contemporary societies from a feminist perspective.

Its main aim is to help circulate critical knowledge of what is happening in thefields of artistic production in contemporary society. Structured into two blocks, the course broaches both the theoretical and political problems that feminist researchers face when trying to build nonsexist knowledge; such as those artistic practices that question the different dimensions of the ‘art’ institution, having an impact on criticism of hegemonic representations of sexual difference.
