 ty)MANNEQUINS AND WEDDING DRESSES: THE COMMODIFICATION OF WOMEN THROUGH MA
 RRIAGE IN 1970s QUEBEC ARTThe 1960s and 70s in Canada\, as in many other W
 estern countries\, were characterized by the emergence of the Women's Libe
 ration Movement. In Quebec\, artists dealt with feminist issues in works s
 uch as Mauve's La femme et la ville (1972)\, and Francine Larivée's La
  chambre nuptiale (1976). The question my presentation addresses is how t
 hese works offer specific local articulations of the broader international
  feminist movement. I argue that Mauve's and Larivée's particular concern
  with the issue of commodification in relation to women\, and the bride mo
 re specifically\, is a major local characteristic of Quebec feminst art fr
 om the 1970s.• Sonya Ocampo-Gooding (MA candidate\, Concordia Universi
 ty)THE INSPIRATIONAL POWER OF THE SHEELA-NA-GIGThe Sheela-na-gig is an eni
 gmatic medieval carving of a female figure with exposed genitalia. Example
 s are found throughout Ireland and Western Europe. It has been re-imagined
  and re-invented by some Irish contemporary artists to address modern them
 es: Barrie Cooke's mixed-media Sheela explored female sexuality in a time 
 of sexual repression in Ireland. Louise Walsh's installations took element
 s of the Sheela to free the femal body from the male-dominated strictures 
 of Irish society. Eilis O'Connell's sculptures were inspired by Sheela's f
 emale form. The talk shows how a controversial medieval image took on new 
 identities to advance progressive ideas in society.Présidente | Chair : A
