Résumé

This volume draws the portraits of sixty-seven fascinating women and their significant artistic achievements, from groundbreaking Renaissance painter Artemisia Gentileschi to the autobiographical photography of Nan Goldin today. Tracing the painters, sculptors, photographers, and performance artists who have shaped modern art, readers discover key figures and their signature works and styles, from Mary Cassatt's impressionist paintings to Sonia Delaunay's mastery of color and geometric shapes, from Eva Hesse's postminimal sculptures to the large-scale works of Georgia O'Keeffe, the "mother of American modernism", and from the conceptual photography of Cindy Sherman to Rei Naito's nature-inspired installations. Exploring the codes and archetypes of art history, this celebration of women in art analyzes their slow but steady achievement of artistic independence and the hard-won recognition for their creative work in a domain historically reserved for men.
