Desperate Art Wives at the Tate Modern

This Sunday, I will be joining the Desperate Art Wives for an intervention at the Tate Modern to protest about sexism in the art world.  I will be highlighting the problems encountered by working class women; wearing my tabard again and this time putting paint brushes and rags etc. in the front pocket to clean the Tate Modern.  I will be joined by Jane Hellings who will be wearing the tabard that she wears for the Feminist Pound Shop and banging a pot in the style of les casseroles or cacerolazo South American women protestors.  Below is a photograph of one of the embroidered tabards and a link to the Rebel Arts write-up from the Rudi Dutschke symposium where I last wore a tabard, embroidered with the words, “You never asked my name”:
