Art and activism: the subversive ceramic sculptures of Linda Lighton.

For fifty years, American artist Linda Lighton has created a powerful body of subversive ceramic sculptures that explore desire in all its complex forms. Her work uses wit and seduction as conceptual weaponry to mine the relationship between sex, power, and politics.

Linda Lighton: Love and War is a richly illustrated monograph that gives a comprehensive overview of Linda Lighton's pioneering career. The book delves into the ways that her highly original and often rebellious work pushes the boundaries of ceramic sculpture.

Accompanied by new scholarship on the artist's practice, this publication situates her sculptures--which use a feminist visual language to address social issues, such as gun violence, environmental degradation, and gender conformity--within the context of broader art historical developments.
