Over the years in the American feminist movement, art, specifically fiction, has played a vital role in the transformation of our society. Feminist literature is not a major genre in our culture, and feminist fiction holds even less power. However, women writers have produced influential works, and said works have had major beneficial impacts on the feminist movement. I expect these types of benefits will continue to progress in future years in an effort to achieve equality. In fact, I am betting on it. It is my ambition to create feminist influenced fiction, myself.
Working theories into creative work is important. And so, I commend the women, and men, who have accomplished this task in the past, and I invite others to continue this labor in the years to come. As our age of technology advances, we much take advantage of our worldly access, and challenge ourselves to be more creative in the presenting of our stories.
This exhibit will give tribute to some of the major North American activists who created works of fiction and it will shed light on the role of feminist fiction in a technology-based movement.
