Hardcover, Gebraucht, sehr guter Zustand, [ED: 1], Hardcover. 4to. Phaidon Press, London, UK. 1997. 240 pgs. Illustrated throughout. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities (spine sunned, crown of the DJ has a triangular chip present). Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. This work charts the use of graphics and related media in the fight for women's rights throughout the century. It encompasses many of the associated issues that have surrounded these movements, as well as some of the attacks launched against them. From the Suffragettes, through to the virtual-reality explorations of end-of-the-century cyberfeminists, it highlights both large orchestrated campaigns, and small, intense personal statements. Not a history book, but a compilation of sparkling, hard-hitting graphics on the international women's movement drawn from the fine arts, fashion, and advertising to comics, broadsheets, and cyberart. Liz McQuiston's vivid text and selections center on how design furthered campaigns exalting or denigrating a woman's place in the world. Biting humor and anger crop up throughout. An automaker's billboard boasting "If it were a lady it would get its bottom pinched" draws the memorable spray-painted response: "If this lady was a car, she'd run you down." Voting rights, abuse, girl power, abortion, and parity are a few of the subjects touched on in this wide-ranging, freewheeling book on design and propaganda. EB; 11.7 X 10.2 X 1.3 inches; 240 pages., E-245, [PU: Phaidon Press]<
