Description
Traditionally, major girls artists have been excluded from the mainstream art canon. Aligned with the resurgence of feminism in popular culture, Broad Strokes offers an entertaining corrective to that omission. Art historian Bridget Quinn delves into the lives and careers of 15 brilliant female artists in text that is smart, feisty, educational, and an enjoyable read. Replete with stunning reproductions of the artists’ works and latest portraits of every artist by renowned illustrator Lisa Congdon, that is art history from 1600 to the current day for the brand new art lover, reader, and feminist.
