The Story Of Art Without Men

Beskrivelse

Discover a fresh perspective on art history that centers women artists, challenging the traditional narratives that have long overlooked their contributions. This book invites you to rethink what you know about art and its creators.

A groundbreaking exploration of art history through the lens of women artists worldwide.

How familiar are you with women artists throughout history? Who really shapes the story of art? Did female artists exist before the twentieth century, and what exactly does the Baroque period represent? This book flips conventional art history on its head, revealing a diverse range of art forms that have often been ignored or undervalued.

From the rugged Cornish coastline to the bustling streets of Manhattan, and spanning continents from Nigeria to Japan, this is a narrative for our times-one that places women firmly at its core. Created by the founder of @thegreatwomenartists, this work brings together these overlooked stories for the very first time.

Praised as a much-needed, revisionist take on art history by Katy Hessel, the book is accessible and engaging, never pretentious. It serves as a vital step toward correcting the imbalance in an art world where women have too often been marginalized, ignored, or erased, as noted by REFINERY29.
