Subversive feminist art: Mimi Smith


Slave Ready Corporate, 1991-1993



Mimi Smith has been creating feminist statement art since the mid 1960s. I'm really drawn to these clothing pieces, most of which are on display now-ish at the Brooklyn Museum. A little fashion "fuck you" for your Tuesday.




Maternity Dress, 1966-1966


To Die For?, 1991, dress




Protector Against Illness: Black Tamoxifen Bra, 1996–1996.
