S2.17 feat. Guerrilla Girls – Feminist Art-Activists, Creative Complainers, and Hashtag Heroes.  Anonymous, but hilarious, female artists tackle discrimination and equity issues in the art world.  Their super power – creative complaining – has moved the needle and may be a model of effective protest and activism for many of the troubling issues of our time.

John meets Kathe Kollwitz and Shigeko Kubota of the Guerrilla Girls at a top secret location for a rare interview with the mask-wearing covert crusaders of the art world.

The Guerrilla Girls discuss:

• The art of creative complaining
• The delicious and deleterious aspects of being anonymous
• Political art
• Not waiting for approval
• Fresh ways of presenting facts
• Making change by making people laugh
