The Women’s Art Library presents unique and energised insights about the feminist links between art and education. Platforming a community of artists and researchers around the Women’s Art Library in London, the film reveals a balance between the preservation of records of self-identified women artists, with their activation. Hosting artists and researchers alike, the WAL is a space that generates creativity, through centring the intersectional feminist strategies that practitioners bring to their time with the library. Featuring the collection, the film documents the social and creative setting of the WAL (within Goldsmiths University), its users and its host; curator Althea Greenan. Yes to the Work! invites audiences to consider the importance of resources centred on women’s art today.
Commissioned by Art360 Foundation, a charity working with artist’s archives in Autumn 2022.
