Abstract

This article engages with the work of Scotland-based artist Kate Davis (b.1977). The discussion begins to articulate a framework for understanding Davis?s work within a feminist logic of re-visioning and re-citing,strategies that are explicated and suggested as paradigmatic to feminist art production since 1970.Fundamentally, the article explores Davis?s complex strategies for adopting and adapting motifs from within the archives of art history, arguing that her work constitutes a mode of visual research and historiography.
