Exquisite Acts & Everyday Rebellions: 2007 CalArts Feminist Art  
Project is student-organized and based at California Institute of the  
Arts that seeks to produce discourse around the questions and  
contexts of contemporary feminist practice in art and society. The  
project at CalArts encompasses projects and workshops proposed by  
students from across the schools of CalArts, a curated exhibition of  
student, faculty, and alumni works addressing feminism, a feminist  
performance series, and a day-long symposium of panel discussions  
with guest artists, activists, and curators.

Who I'd like to meet:

Feminism continues to be relevant and necessary as a continually  
evolving body of thought and action that takes as its subject lived  
experience, psychological, social, and cultural constructions. It  
projects new modes of thought and action into these spheres and  
disrupts the status quo. However, by its very structure, feminism has  
resisted easy definition. To ask the question, "What is feminism?" is  
to also ask, "What feminisms exist today?"Since the emergence of the  
Second Wave of feminism in the 1970's, there has been an impulse in  
society and culture to demarcate categorical and historical divisions  
within feminism. By embarking on the Exquisite Acts & Everyday  
Rebellions project, we are seeking to understand feminism through a  
process of porous exchanges, between generations, individuals, and  
disciplines in the arts.
