Abstract

A big shift is happening in the political reality of the UK and the wilder world. Women in Poland are marching against tightening abortion rules, anti-immigration rhetoric is escalating while mothers and children wait hopelessly in ramshackle camps across Europe, and the way things are going the gender pay gap may take 118 more years to close. Such fluidity and impermanency – of living conditions, of employment, of female rights – are concerns of articles in this issue. The articles also respond to an art world troubled by political gender inequalities. An art world and art education that are unable to acknowledge the different needs and realities that artists experience during one of the most productive periods in their lives.
