Su Richardson - In Stitches

This long-overdue publication celebrates the pioneering work of Su Richardson, a key figure in British feminist art. Emerging from the 1970s feminist art movement, Richardson’s witty and subversive crochet sculptures challenge domestic ideals and explore themes of gender, identity and, more recently, illness and aging. The catalogue features a foreword by MAC’s director Deborah Kermode, an insightful essay by writer Linsey Young and a conversation between the artist and curator Roma Piotrowska, alongside a rich selection of images. Published on the occasion of Richardson’s major exhibition at MAC, this catalogue is an essential addition for anyone interested in feminist art, craft and political expression.
