The Great Feminist Art Party: A 1000 Piece Jigsaw Riot
Lydia Miller
Join twenty-five of the art world’s greatest feminist figures as they come together to curate, celebrate and share their stories. Spot friends Frida Kahlo and Elizabeth Catlett snapping a mirror selfie, Georgia O’Keeffe arranging a vase of her signature jimson weed, and Faith Ringgold and Louise Bourgeois chatting about their groundbreaking textile art. Look up to see the Guerrilla Girls swinging wildly from the chandeliers! Hidden within the illustration is a clever clue to the next puzzle in the series – can you find it?
Brought to life in dazzling, maximalist detail by illustrator Laura Callagan, and steered by the curatorial expertise of Lydia Miller, this jigsaw puzzle brims with witty nods to the lives and work of its featured artists. Judy Chicago prepares a table for a dinner party, while Marina Abramovic drafts a manifesto. Sarah Lucas and Tracey Emin run a cheeky pop-up shop, while Yayoi Kusama transforms a gallery wall into a sea of dots.
The scene pays homage not only to contemporary legends but also to trailblazers of the past. Spot painter and printmaker Mary Cassatt, along with Christina Broom, the UK’s first female press photographer known for her documentation of the suffragettes. The Great Feminist Art Party reaches even further back, spotlighting Artemisia Gentileschi, whose courageous work shattered barriers and continues to inspire generations of feminists.
Included with the puzzle is a concertina fold-out, featuring an introduction to feminism in art, a large reproduction of the jigsaw illustration with a detailed key, and fascinating biographies of the twenty-five individuals depicted.
