Directed by Lynn Hershman Leeson

Produced by Alexandra Chowaniec, Kyle Stephan and Lynn Hershman Leeson

!Women Art Revolution is nominated for:

  • Graphic Design and Animation  Justin Barber and Ryland Jones


For over forty years, Director Lynn Hershman Leeson has collected hundreds of hours of interviews with visionary artists, historians, curators and critics who shaped the beliefs and values of the Feminist Art Movement. !WOMEN ART REVOLUTION details major developments in women’s art of the 1970s, including the first feminist art education programs, political organizations and protests, alternative art spaces, publications and landmark exhibitions, performances, and installations of public art that changed the entire direction of the art world. The film is a thought-provoking look at the confrontation between brilliant artists and the institutions that excluded them for far too long.
