WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2022 THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES
BESTSELLER 'A long overdue, revisionist history of art by the
brilliant Katy Hessel . . . Never stuffy or supercilious, Hessel's
book is a revelation and an important first step towards redressing
the balance of an art world in which women have been sidelined,
stepped over and trampled upon for far too long.' REFINERY29 'An
extraordinary achievement that will have a disruptive cultural
legacy and help deter mine the landscape for years to come.'
HARPER'S BAZAAR 'Katy Hessel is a brilliant chronicler of the
overlooked. I am so thrilled this book exists as an empowering,
enlightening guide to the unforgettable vision of these brilliant
artists. Essential reading.' ELIZABETH DAY 'Will change the history
of art . . . thank God.' TRACEY EMIN 'I was not aware how hungry I
was for this book until I dropped everything and ate it from cover
to cover. I was not aware how angry I was that this book did not
exist until it existed. It's an urgently needed, un-put-downable,
joyful, insightful, glorious, perspective-shifting revision of the
Story of Art.' ES DEVLIN __________________________________ How

even work as artists before the twentieth century? And what is the
Baroque anyway? Have your sense of art history overturned, and your

the Cornish coast to Manhattan, Nigeria to Japan, this is the story
of art for our times - one with women at its heart, brought
together for the first time by the creator of
@thegreatwomenartists. __________________________________ 'A
spirited, inspiring, brilliantly illustrated history of female
artistic endeavour . . . The Story of Art Without Men should be on
the reading list of every A-level and university art history course
and on the front table of every museum and gallery shop.' LAURA
FREEMAN, THE TIMES 'Passionate, enthusiastic and witty . . . I wish
I had had this book as a teenager' THE I
