I’m a bad feminist because I took the piss out of this portrait of Millicent Fawcett by saying “U OK hun? Don’t listen to em hun, they’re all jealous haters, inbox me xoxo” as we approached it. One for @theguiltyfeminist I think.... #guiltyfeminist #nationalportraitgallery #millicentfawcett #london (at National Portrait Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7w1VJJjVp5/?igshid=7958y8pnjht7

#NewEditionAlert - ‘Courage Calls to Courage Everywhere’ by Turner Prize winner #GillianWearing was launched yesterday in the #MillicentFawcett room @sketchlondon (the very same location where Fawcett gave her first public speech in 1869 calling for the enfranchisement of women). The edition is now available via the @plinthuk online store at a launch price of £150. https://plinth.uk.com/collections/new-in/products/courage-calls-to-courage-everywhere About the edition: To mark the centenary of women’s suffrage in the UK, a statue of Millicent Fawcett by artist Gillian Wearing was unveiled in London’s Parliament Square on April 24th 2018. The sculpture sees the Suffragist leader brandishing a placard proclaiming ‘Courage calls to courage everywhere’, and standing on a plinth emblazoned with the images of leading suffragist and suffragette campaigners. It is from this cohort of dedicated men and women, working a century ago, that the inspiration for Wearing’s latest limited edition was drawn. Mayor of London’s Culture & Creative Industries Team and Plinth have worked with the artist to produce an edition of 1,000 embroidered handkerchiefs, each featuring signatures from 50 of these historic figures alongside those of Caroline Criado Perez and Gillian Wearing herself. The edition will launch at the end of November 2018, available to pre-order now for the special price of £150. Part of the proceeds from the sale of the range are donated to the Fawcett Society, who have continued the work of their founder for more than 150 years in fighting for women’s rights and representation. Embroidered handkerchief, cotton linen blend. Edition of 1,000 Handkerchief: 45cm x 45cm Boxed: 24 x 7cm £150 (exclusive launch price) #publicart #publicsculpture #behindeverygreatcity #couragecallstocourageeverywhere @newarteditions https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqxh2yjllcD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15f53alg7d4rx

Today a statue by the artist Gillian Wearing of Millicent Garrett Fawcett was unveiled in parliament square...and about time too! Millicent becomes the first woman to be commemorated in this way and stands surrounded by 11 statues of Men. Millicent was the leader of the National Union of women’s suffrage society’s and campaigned peacefully lobbying and petitioning the government for 61 years to win Votes for women. She lived to see the Equal Franchise act become law in 1928 when women became voters on equal terms with men. “Courage calls to courage everywhere and it’s voice cannot be denied “ #thefawcettsociety #suffragists #gillianwearing #millicentfawcett
