    Lauren Elkin is an award winning Franco-American writer, translator and cultural critic. In 2023 she published the bestseller Art Monsters: Unruly Bodies in Feminist Art. A dazzlingly original reassessment of women's stories, bodies and art - and how we think about them. For decades, feminist artists have confronted the problem of how to tell the truth about their experiences as bodies. Queer bodies, sick bodies, racialized bodies, female bodies, what is their language, what are the materials we need to transcribe it? Exploring the ways in which feminist artists have taken up this challenge, Art Monsters attempts to rethink the concept of the monstrous and to theorize a feminist aesthetics of the body.
