Harmony Hammond, a leading figure in New York's feminist and lesbian art movements, is primarily known for her abstract painting and sculpture. As a co-founder of A.I.R., the first major women's cooperative art gallery, and Heresies, a groundbreaking feminist journal, Hammond played a critical role in the emergence of lesbian and feminist art through her curation and writing. Still Dangerous!, with an introduction by the volume editor Tirza True Latimer and a foreword by Julia Bryan-Wilson, brings together five decades of Hammond's writings addressing the historical invisibility of women and lesbian artists, the politics of gender and sexuality in contemporary creative practice, materiality, feminism's expanding purview, resisting censorship, and strategies of feminist and queer abstraction. Compiling essays, reviews, artist's statements, presentations, letters, and interviews, Still Dangerous! fleshes out Hammond's career while providing a valuable resource for scholars and students of contemporary culture.

Industry Reviews

"Harmony Hammond's gentle wisdom informs her profound illumination of the expanded and inclusive history of feminist-inspired artmaking over six decades. Defending feminist abstraction while exploring inscriptions of lesbian desire in diverse art processes, Hammond's precious, historic writings are prefaced by editor Tirza True Latimer's contextual introductions. This major feminist archive becomes a vital art historical resource through both authors' feminist fidelity to our continuing struggle."-Griselda Pollack, Professor Emerita of Social and Critical Histories of Art, University of Leeds "Harmony Hammond is a badass. Her rigorous commitment to painterly abstraction and to the expansive specificity of lesbian identity suggests we need not choose between the two. Her writing and organizing and her daily studio practice shows us the paucity of false dichotomies. This book encourages paying close attention to our bodies and surroundings while dreaming and theorizing a future we may not see."-Helen Molesworth, author of Open Questions: Thirty Years of Writing about Art
