Artists include Maja Bajevic, Marlene Dumas, Ellen Gallagher, Mona Hatoum, Emily Jacir, Daniela Kostove, Shirin Neshat, Shen Yuan, among others. The book features works specially conceived for the catalogue--drawings, large installations, photographs, videos, paintings--all explore the theme of female artist freedom in contemporary art. According to Francesco Bonami, curator and essayist, While the work of the artists in the show purposely lack a shared content, subject matter, or ideas, they participate in a polyphony of predictable outcries.
