Margaret Harrison (b. 1940) is one of Britain’s best known feminist artists, a pioneer of feminist art, whose peers and collaborators include Mary Kelly, Nancy Spero and Orlan.  Margaret’s early work was influenced by British Pop art of the late 1950s.  She created drawings, paintings, and installations using images culled from the popular press and featuring iconic cultural figures including Captain America with comedy breasts, and Hugh Heffner dressed as a Bunny Girl.  These images seem funny now, but her first show in London was closed down by the Police after one day on grounds of indecency.  Margaret’s work for I am a Fantasy will continue to “tread the fine line between irony, sexuality, trans-gender, transvestism, power, masculinity, objectification and exploitation”.
