Boxing Gloves and Bustiers is an exhibition of video, photography and video installation that explore the many faces of heroic female figuration.
Topics include but are not limited to:
* Work that addresses a shift in the relationship of women to power and place and the subsequent critique this change entails.
* Work that depicts female triumph either in an extreme form or against the odds.
* Work depicting or critiquing female transfiguration.
* Work that demonstrates the ability of women artist/protagonists to transform the world around them.* Work on performative self-portraiture or invented selves, from the ordinary to the fantastic.
