Reconceiving feminism in exquisite Exeter, N.H.

Digital photograph by Ella Cooper, in the show "Representing Feminism(s),'' at the Lamont Gallery at Phillips Exeter Academy through April 21.

The gallery says: "This exhibition is an exploration of the nature, utility, and meaning of feminism by over 30 contemporary artists working in a variety of mediums. The intent  was "to consider how feminism can be represented and, when necessary, reconceived."

Exeter is a gorgeous town with a deep pre-Revolutionary War history and close to the vast and beautiful marshes and rocky coast of New Hampshire's small seacoast.
