More information on 21 Revolutions:
Following a successful programme of exhibitions and readings our 21 Revolutions publication will be launched in 2014.
The publication brings together a remarkable group of 21 women writers and 21 women artists who are amongst the most significant creatives working in Scotland. Marking Glasgow Women’s Library’s first two decades, they have generated an exciting, powerful body of new art and writing inspired by the Library’s diverse, historically important treasures, from suffragette brooches to women’s liberation badges.
With three newly commissioned introductory essays and a fascinating survey of the gems housed within the lending library, archive and museum collections, this publication offers a beautiful, original array of art and writing, with a unique insight into one of the most significant cultural resources in Scotland and the group of cutting edge artists and writers it has inspired.
Here’s what others say:
21 Revolutions illuminates how much history and memories inform women’s imagination and creativity, as well as their politics. A brilliant collage of artists’ and writers’ responses – sombre, poignant, quirky, funny and challenging – to the rich and varied collections of Glasgow Women’s Library, this book is a revelatory and moving testimony to the interconnections between past and present.

Buy it for your daughters, mother and grandmothers, but make sure your sons read it too.
Dr Elspeth King, Director, Stirling Smith Art Gallery and Museum
