Woman Art & Society

"While acknowledging the many women whose contributions to visual culture since the Middle Ages have often been neglected, Chadwick’s survey amounts to much more than an alternative canon of women artists:?it re-examines the works themselves and the ways in which they have been perceived as marginal, often in direct reference to gender. A new chapter considers how women’s art in the twenty-first century is characterized by a renewed focus on the personal and the intimate, alongside an interest in more global issues. Written by Whitney Chadwick. Published by Thames & Hudson. 528 pages. 210 x 150mm."
