"First published in the United Kingdom in 2022 by Hutchinson Heinemann."--Title page verso.
Part one: paving the way c.1500-c.1900 -- Part two: what made art modern c.1870-c.1950 -- Part three: postwar women c.1949-c.1970 -- Part four: taking ownership 1970-2000 -- Part five: still writing 2000-present.
"How many women artists do you know? Who makes art history? Did women even work as artists before the twentieth century? And what is the Baroque anyway? Guided by Katy Hessel, art historian and founder of @thegreatwomenartists, discover the glittering paintings by Sofonisba Anguissola of the Renaissance, the radical work of Harriet Powers in the nineteenth-century United States and the artist who really invented the "readymade." Explore the Dutch Golden Age, the astonishing work of postwar artists in Latin America, and the women defining art in the 2020s. Have your sense of art history overturned and your eyes opened to many artforms often ignored or dismissed. From the Cornish coast to Manhattan, Nigeria to Japan, this is the history of art as it's never been told before"-- Provided by publisher.
