Hi, I'm taking a course outside of my field on feminist issues in art
history. I'm a bit lost searching through web sites on contemporary
art. I guess I'd like to know of a good research base that points to
reliable scholarly sources on feminist issues in comtemporary art (art
after the 1960's). I have a university internet account that lets me
access most online scholarly journals, so those are also welcome.

Best,
Nikki

Hello nikki101,

n.paradoxa calls itself "the only international feminist art journal
exploring feminist theory and contemporary women's art practices" It
has been published in two separate editions: online (quarterly, since
Dec. 1996) and in print (bi-annually, ISSN 1461-0434, since 1998)) 
You can access the current and previous issues on the journal's web
site:
http://web.ukonline.co.uk/n.paradoxa/index.htm

On the same web site you will also find lists of relevant books,
magazines and journal articles, as well as links to other feminist art
sites on the Internet.

The Bibliography of Black American Feminism on the web site of
University of California, Santa Barbara has a section on art, which
might include relevant references:
