Welcome to Feminist Art Lives, a new podcast series about the encounter between art and feminism across Britain and Ireland, in the words of the artists and creatives themselves.
In each episode, researchers from the Feminist Art Making Histories (FAMH) Project explore stories and insights from the newly created FAMH archive of oral history interviews with artists, curators and writers who were active in the 1970s, 80s and 90s.
They uncover new stories of art and activism from a moment when everything was questioned and the category of art was tested and remade.
From the art school to D.I.Y. gallery, the kitchen table to the museum, the interviews reveal the vitality of artistic experiment and the tactics and strategies artists and creatives found to share their work beyond the mainstream.
Alive to difference and disagreement within feminism, each episode shows how artists, makers and creatives forged paths through divisive issues, making work that continues to help us understand the world and its inequities.
Listen to a critical generation of artists and thinkers whose voices who are rarely heard, and who remain less well-represented in public museums and art histories.
Whether you’re interested in art or feminism, or you love listening to people talk about their lives, prepare to be inspired and moved by these remarkable women.

For young people in the UK, ‘political stability’ is an oxymoron. Our generation has grown up alongside a series of so-called ‘once-in-a-generation’ crises, and many hear the phrase ‘British Government’ and immediately think of a controversial policy choice, a frontline politician, or a scandal dominating the news. This series, however, takes the long view of British politics and aims to gain a clearer understanding of how and why British politics has changed in the 21st century, by interviewing 4 people who have each worked in and around the heart of Government during this time.

This captivating study draws on the Tanakh (Old Testament) and makes intriguing comparisons with the mythologies of neighboring cultures alongside archaeological discoveries. Oesterley not only examines the components of human existence, such as demonology, angelology, and ancestor worship, but also delves into the beliefs surrounding the realms of the dead, necromancy, and burial customs. Additionally, he offers insightful hypotheses on how primitive notions of immortality may have evolved over time.

From its beginnings as a backwater of the Roman Empire to its heyday at the heart of the British Empire and up to the eve of the Great War, Rosemary Hill charts London’s history through waves of expansion and contraction with the help of historians, antiquaries and archaeologists.
London's past is everywhere beneath its streets, in the geology and archeology of its deep and ancient history, and in its mythic lives, in William Blake's Albion and Cobbett's 'Great Wen', the home of Dick Whittington and King Lud. This will be the London described by Tacitus, Shakespeare and Viginia Woolf, a city shaped by Boudicca, Christopher Wren and Joseph Bazalgette, and a story of countless disasters, recoveries and triumphs unfolding over more than 2,000 years.
Rosemary Hill is a writer, historian and contributor to the London Review of Books. Her books include ‘God's Architect', 'Stonehenge' and ‘Time’s Witness: History in the Age of Romanticism’.

Sometime between the 13th and 16th centuries, a small city on the banks of the Arno River decided—without knowing it was deciding—to change the world.
Florence produced Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, Leonardo, Dante, and Machiavelli. It invented the Renaissance, created the modern banking system, and exported ideas that are still present in everything you see and use today.
This series tells that story, with the depth of a documentary and the pacing of a literary narrative.
Every great story has an address. And this world began here. -
