Bøker av Sadie Lee Et Al

Sadie Lee, Roxana Halls and Sarah Jane Moon are figurative artists whose queer identities inform much of their work. They produce paintings that deploy the tropes and techniques of representational art to striking effect. In an era where artists routinely insist on their subversiveness and the interrogation of sexual and gender norms is a mainstream endeavour, this group invites aesthetic as well as ideological scrutiny. These gay women make bold, alluring, witty and deft work which disavows any antagonism between politics and pleasure. Indeed, their show's title, 'Threesome' makes a cooly sardonic reference to the voyeuristic aspect of lesbian representation: any eroticism in these works is strictly intentional. 'Threesome is a refreshing smack in the face - women's unashamed sexuality, strength, depth and vibrance - of women, by women. Beautiful.' Yasmin Hashmi, founder member of the Women's Equality Party
