\'Incisive and provocative ... a sensitive and probing critique\' The New York Times\'Essential reading ... gripping, inspirational, beautifully written and highly thought-provoking\' Dr Helen Gørrill, author of Women Can\'t PaintA bold reconsideration of women in art - from the \'Old Masters\' to the posts of Instagram influencersA perfect pin-up, a damsel in distress, a saintly mother, a femme fatale ...Women\'s identity has long been stifled by a limited set of archetypes, found everywhere in pictures from art history\'s classics to advertising, while women artists have been overlooked and held back from shaping more empowering roles.In this impassioned book, art historian Catherine McCormack asks us to look again at what these images have told us to value, opening up our most loved images - from those of Titian and Botticelli to Picasso and the Pre-Raphaelites. She also shows us how women artists - from Berthe Morisot to Beyoncé, Judy Chicago to Kara Walker - have offered us new ways of thinking about women\'s identity, sexuality, race and power.Women in the Picture gives us new ways of seeing the art of the past and the familiar images of today so that we might free women from these restrictive roles and embrace the breadth of women\'s vision.\'A call to arms in a world where the misogyny that taints much of the western art canon is still largely ignored\' Financial Times\'It felt like the scales were falling from my eyes as I read it.\' The Herald Σελίδες: 240, Έτος Έκδοσης: 1111, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
