"Do women have to be naked to get into the Met Museum??" -Guerrilla Girls, 1985.
This is the first book to document the full history and global impact of the Guerrilla girls, a collective of political feminist artists who expose discrimination and corruption in art, film, politics, and pop culture all around the world. They quickly became a global phenomenon, and the fearless activists have produced hundreds of posters, stickers, and billboards ever since. More than 55 women artists have donned the iconic gorilla mask over the last 35 years and joined this activist collective to challenge the art world patriarchy. The Guerrilla Girls were truly the predecessors of the '90s birth of Riot grrrl, and our modern #MeToo movement. Bonus: a perforated, pop-out Guerrilla mask in the back of the book that invites the reader to step up and join the movement.
