5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent analysis of Women and Surrealism, May 30, 2001
By 
DS Loeb (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mirror Images: Women, Surrealism, and Self-Representation (Paperback)
Although the publication of "Women and Surrealism" by Whitney Chadwick in the 1980s brought about a larger appreciation of women involved in the movement, there is still a surprising shortage of material published about surrealist artists such as Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo. "Mirror Images: Women, Surrealism, and Self Representation" offers a series of insightful essays on these and other artists' images and ideas of self. Most interestingly, many of the essays discuss the work of Surrealist "descendents," including Cindy Sherman and Louise Bourgeois. Overall, very well constructed and written, with essays by the leading scholars in this still under-appreciated area.
