What's on

Carolee Schneemann: Body Politics

Art Gallery, 6.30-8.30pm

Tracing six decades of diverse, transgressive and interdisciplinary expression, Body Politics is the first extensive survey of radical feminist artist Carolee Schneemann's work, addressing urgent topics from sexual expression and the objectification of women to human suffering and the violence of war.

Soheila Sokhanvari: Rebel Rebel

The Curve, 6.30-8.30pm

Commissioned by Iranian artist Soheila Sokhanvari, Rebel Rebel humorously explores the contradictions of Iranian women’s lives between 1925 and the 1979 revolution – an explosive period of both liberation and commodification that proved short lived.
