The League of Socialist Artists

Maureen Scott, the revolutionary artist whose work opened Tate’s acclaimed Women in Revolt! exhibition, was the founder and driving force behind The League of Socialist Artists. Through her art and visionary writings, she offers a powerful call to reimagine our lives and unite in the fight for meaningful change.

For the first time, this book brings together the groundbreaking publications of The League of Socialist Artists, written by its founder and secretary, Maureen Scott. It also features rarely seen examples of her powerful paintings, graphic design, and photography. Long overlooked by the mainstream, Scott’s work stands as both a political and artistic testament—foregrounding her radical socialist activism and her incisive analysis of the deep scars left by capitalism.
