Women's Work: From Feminine Arts to Feminist Art
This powerful and insightful work offers a bold celebration of the innovative, brilliant artists reclaiming the idea of 'women's work'. In the history of western art, decorative and applied arts—including textiles and ceramics—have been separated from the 'high arts' of painting and sculpture and deemed more suitable for women.
Artists began to reclaim and redefine these materials and methods, energizing them with expressions of identity and imagination. Women's Work tells the story of this radical change, highlighting modern and contemporary artists who dared to defy this hierarchy and, through experimentation and invention, transformed their medium.
The work of these women has underscored the ongoing value of these art forms within the history of art, championing 'women's work' as powerful mediums worthy of celebration. With biographical entries on each artist featured, as well as beautiful images of their artworks, Women's Work elevates the contributions of these visionary and groundbreaking artists, telling their stories and examining their artistic legacies.
