WOMEN ARTISTS - MAURA REILLY KARTONIERT (TB)

Linda Nochlin (1931-2017) was one of the most pioneering and provocative art historians of our
time. In 1971 she published her groundbreaking article  'Why Have There Been No Great Women
Artists?'  an impassioned feminist rallying cry that called traditional art historical
practices into question and led to a major revision of the discipline.    Women Artists: The
Linda Nochlin Reader brings together thirty essential essays from throughout Nochlin's career 
including two written specially for this collection. The book opens with an interview with
Nochlin  in which she looks back on her life's work and reflects on the position of women
artists today. Her major thematic texts  such as 'Women Artists After the French Revolution'
and 'Starting from Scratch: The Beginnings of Feminist Art History' appear alongside the
landmark 1971 essay and its rejoinder  '"Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?": Thirty
Years After.' Also included are entries focusing on a selection of major women artists  such as
Mary Cassatt  Louise Bourgeois  Cecily Brown  Kiki Smith  Miwa Yanagi and Sophie Calle  as well
as concise biographies of all the artists discussed in the book and a complete bibliography of
Nochlin's publications.
