Product Description
Review
..."Pollock deesentializes the category "woman," here well described as a fiction of the canon that erases class and race in the modernist movement--a rubbing-out that feminist art history can write back in."
-"SIGNS
"[A] keen critique of the canon as a gendered and gendering institution intent on excluding those who differ from its hegemonic structure of European male power."
-" RACAR
"The flow of the book is wondrous, as Pollack builds each new idea onto the next, rounded out with rigorous research."
-"Foreword, 4/99
..."a densely woven text of art, literature, history, and theory... powerful... rewarding."
-Steven Z. Levine, Bryn Mawr College, "Woman's Art Journal, Spring/Summer 2001
Product Description
In this major book, renowned art historian Griselda Pollock makes a compelling intervention into a debate at the very centre of feminist art history: should the traditional canon of the Old Masters be rejected, replaced or reformed?
