Galeria Quadrum’s recent exhibition “Earthkeeping / Earthshaking – Art, Feminisms and Ecology” used the 1981 issue of US feminist art magazine “Heresies” as a starting point for a collection that aimed to “enable a sense of care, artistic agency, and heterogenous approaches to ecology and feminisms.” In the 40 years since that issue’s publication, attitudes to our earth have changed immeasurably – our ownership of it, our ruin of it, our denial. Ideas of feminism, too, now sit far more comfortably within mainstream discussions. Here, art historian Gillian Sneed considers whether the curator’s inclusion of contemporary works against the backdrop of “Heresies” as a now-historical text did enough to offer the viewer a truly diverse and intersectional depiction of a feminism for 2020.
