📘 See red women's workshop by Prue Stevenson

Founded in 1974, the See Red Women's Workshop emerged from a shared desire to counter sexist depictions of women and to generate constructive, empowering alternatives. Women of diverse backgrounds collaborated to create posters and calendars addressing sexuality, identity, and systemic oppression. With wit and striking graphics, the group conveyed personal experiences while highlighting women’s roles in broader quests for societal change. The book, written by members of See Red, chronicles the collective’s history and showcases all original screenprints, including pieces commissioned for radical campaigns. Its images confront negative stereotypes, interrogate women’s societal positions, and promote self‑determination, capturing a dynamic era of women’s liberation that remains relevant today.
