    what - no comments from trolls who get off on bragging about their "feminist acts of the day" of cyberbullying anyone who they find too progressive???? no - they get into a self-righteous uproar about tea sets with ladies legs, the HER chair and things like that. they completely ignored this post (not ONE COMMENT) about cutting edge feminist art & design - the exhibition looks really good and i'd love to see it. i hope these artists bring this exhibit to NY too.

    i've checked out one of the artists in this exhibition - andrea dezsö. i LOVE her work! i still can't believe nobody but me has bothered to comment here. her work reminds me of one of my favorite artists - Remedios Varos (also a lady).

    i totally appreciate this post - even if i am the only WOMAN commenting on here. i think that more people should look for things to comment on in a positive way such as these artists instead of coming to AT trolling around looking for things to condemn as offensive.
