5.0 out of 5 stars
So inspiring!,
By Beverly Wallace (Colorado Springs, CO, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Singular Women: Writing the Artist (Hardcover)
I have been a painter since the 1960s. As a contemporary female artist, it is so important to learn about the struggles so many female artists have experienced, and this book showed me how artists were able to be noticed and admired, throughout history. The various essays have many different voices, and the introduction really set the tone for a very readable but informative book. I highly recommend it!

Singular Women: How do we study them?,
This review is from: Singular Women: Writing the Artist (BFI Modern Classics) (Paperback)
Well-written, interesting content. Introduction points out the differing strategies and ideas discussed in essays about how women artists have been portrayed and how they ought to be in the future. Why does art done by male artists traditionally get looked at objectively as art, whereas art done by female artists is rarely examined without being explained or contextualized by the female artist's personal life or male artists they are associated with? The book also examines in depth, from multiple angles, the burning question of whether or not the monograph is an applicable format for studying the female artist.
