Creating the "post-scratch" chroma-key "text and effects" style she has made famous, the artist inserts her body into the world of the prime-time soap opera, "Dynasty," where she does her now classic performance, embodying the love/hate relationships so many of us experience with the characters and values of TV, Braderman "performs" feminist and reception theory, turning the reigning ideas of her period into video vernacular. According to reviews in publications such as "The Independent," "The Guardian of London," and "Contemporanea," "few have matched the technique, bravery and humor" ** of JOAN DOES DYNASTY, which is "one of the two most impressive tapes in the video section [of 1987 Whitney Bienniel]" "probably the most widely distributed feminist video ever made." It was ranked #4 in London Video Arts' Top Ten Video Rental List. "JOAN DOES DYNASTY has become the classic feminist performance video of the era." - Dee Dee Halleck.
