About this work

This is a black-and-white poster with bold white text. At the top, it says "Marxism and Art." Below that, a woman stands with her chest bare, wearing a torn shirt and a tie. Her hair is long, and she holds a piece of paper in her hand. The bottom text reads "Beware of Fascist Feminism." The image mixes a serious political message with a striking visual twist. The torn shirt and tie might hint at a critique of traditional power structures. Look up Hannah Wilke to see more of her work.
