Art and Gender includes articles, excerpts, and case studies that address socio-cultural factors influencing the roles of women and men from the perspectives of the visual and performing arts. This text offers perspectives that examine underlying social structures that affect how we define art and artists, and how those structures inspire the art from a perspective of gender. This text draws upon gender in its several and varied permutations as a vehicle for discussing and understanding the arts, culture, and society. These perspectives consider how gender is relevant to the creation and study of arts and culture.

Cultures normalize and legitimize, challenge and resist understandings of gender through the arts. Art and Gender introduces socio-cultural factors influencing gender in the arts, and considers approaches to gender in art through select historical and contemporary analyses of education, social status, subject matter, criticism, and public perceptions. This text explores select social, political, aesthetic, and economic factors that influence ways cultures define art and artists in gendered terms. Readers are encouraged to adopt a critical perspective regarding the arts, gender, and culture.

Selections in Art and Gender are organized in ten thematic sections: Introduction into Issues of Arts and Gender; Gendered Language, Images, and Contexts; Gendered Portrayal: Male, Masculine, Virility; Gender Portrayal: Female, Feminine, Fertility; Gender Portrayal and the Idea of Gaze; Accessibility, Marginalization, Belonging; Significant Others and Art Partnerships; Constructing Gender Through Body Customization; Fashion and Gendered Appearance; and Gendered Landscapes.

Dr. Gregory Gurley currently teaches in the Arts and Administration program at the University of Oregon. He received his doctoral degree in theatre from Arizona State University where his research focused on eighteenth century drama for children and the use of drama as an educational means for social moral development. His research was recognized by Project Muse and in 2008 Drama and Moral Education: The Plays of Maria Edgeworth (1768-1849) was published by VDM Verlag Publishing. As an interdisciplinary arts' curriculum specialist, Dr. Gurley is currently developing in-class, online, and innovative hybrid curriculum and serves as online mentor to other departmental faculty.
