Women, Art & Society 3rd Ed. Woa by Chadwick

An accessible, informative yet compact reappraisal of the position and work of women artists from the Middle Ages to the present. It examines the way their work has been perceived in the history of art - often in direct reference to gender - and re-examines the works themselves. A new chapter - with 30 new illustrations - brings the volume right up to date in light of the most recent developments in contemporary art. It considers the prevailing globalization in the visual arts, focusing in particular on the many major international exhibitions since 1990 that have become an important arena for women artists from around the world.
Whitney Chadwick is Professor of Art History at San Frandisco State University. Among her previous books are Women Artists and the Surrealist Movement, Significant Others and Amazons in the Drawing Room: The Art of Romaine Brooks.
