This collection of articles by feminist writers explores the different ways in which images of women in advertising, magazines, fine art, fashion, and pornography continue to influence commonly-held perceptions of femininity and female sexuality. They show how these images are constantly being reworked and remade in changing cultural and social contexts. Developing original and exciting connections between visual arts and the media Rosemary Betterton bridges the gap between more advanced theoretical work and our everyday practices of looking at and making sense of images of femininity.
