!women art revolution

There's a post online HERE featuring all the upcoming North American screenings of Lynn Hershman's amazing looking film, !Women Art Revolution which I'm itching to see, so fingers crossed it heads over the pond for UK screenings pronto!
There's an interview with Lynn Hershman about the documentary here: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/15/us/15bcculture.html?_r=2

For over forty years, Director Lynn Hershman Leeson has collected hundreds of hours of interviews with visionary artists, historians, curators and critics who shaped the beliefs and values of the Feminist Art Movement and reveal previously undocumented strategies used to politicize female artists and integrate women into art structures.
!W.A.R. features Miranda July, The Guerilla Girls, Yvonne Rainer, Judy Chicago, Marina Abramovic, Yoko Ono, Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger, B. Ruby Rich, Ingrid Sischy, Carolee Schneemann, Miriam Schapiro, Marcia Tucker and countless other groundbreaking figures.
