Book Overview

by Rachel Ignotofsky (Author)

A collection of charmingly illustrated and inspiring profiles of fifty pioneering female artists, from the eleventh century to today--by the New York Times bestselling author of Women in Science

"A beautifully illustrated, fact-filled breath of fresh air! Countless women have been left out of art history, but thanks to gorgeous books like this, future generations will begin to know their stories."--Danielle Krysa, founder of The Jealous Curator

Women make masterpieces! Through fifty fascinating profiles, Women in Art highlights the achievements and stories of fifty notable women in the arts--from well-known figures like painters Frida Kahlo and Georgia O'Keefe, to lesser-known names like nineteenth-century African American quilter Harriet Powers and Hopi-Tewa ceramic artist Nampeyo.

Covering a wide array of artistic mediums, Women in Art also contains infographics about artistic movements throughout history, statistics about women's representation in museums, and notable works by women. This fascinating book celebrates the success of the bold female creators who inspired the world and paved the way for the next generation of artists.
