Summary:

"The book The Clichettes: A Story of Performance, Parody, and Politics will be the first comprehensive source on the acclaimed Canadian women artist collective The Clichettes. Featuring texts by leading voices on art, performance, fashion, film, and philosophy, the book will highlight The Clichettes’ major contribution to the artistic landscape in Canada. It will offer scholars, art historians, curators, and artists new critical perspectives on The Clichettes, and will serve as a lively and accessible introduction to those first encountering the group’s work. Crucially, the book will be richly illustrated with images and documentation from The Clichettes’ live performances, videos, and various television appearances in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s."-- Provided by publisher.
