192 pages, illustrations (some colour); 29 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. Profusely illustrated. *** "Over the centuries, male artists and critics have laid claim to a gender monopoly on artistic 'greatness.' Yet many female artists have produced art of great power despite widespread hostility and practical obstacles. Some have received critical recognition; many more have remained obscure. One far-reaching consequence of this is that some of the most famous images of women have been produced by artists with no direct knowledge of the female experience. . . In this groundbreaking book, the feminist artist Judy Chicago and art historian Edward Lucie-Smith select and analyze images of women by both male and female artists from the whole of Western art history . . . these images proved a wide-ranging, spirited dialogue between the authors as they discuss some of the contrasting ways women have been portrayed . . ." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: The divine; The heroic; Maternity; Daily life; Asking for it?; Casting couch and brothel; I paint, therefore I am; Body as battleground; Household vanities; Exploring identities.
