This important interdisciplinary book is a unique and timely
contribution to the field of women in the arts. Each chapter is
devoted to a single artist and a single ground-breaking work that
altered the course of its art form in a full array of genres,
including dance, music, installation, photography, architecture,
poetry, literature, theater, film, performance art, and popular
culture. These discussions are preceded by a comprehensive
introduction to art by women over the past century that sets the
artists who follow in a context that insightfully illuminates their
struggles, their achievements, and their places in history at a
critical moment in the contemporary world. In this second edition,
the authors have made a significant update with six new chapters,
new photos, and a revised introduction. The new chapters take as
their subjects the contributions of Yoko Ono, Crystal Pite,
Caroline Shaw, Beyonce, Kara Walker, and Diane Paulus. Each of the
new chapters represents an artist or a category of art that has
grown in prominence or engaged a significant redefinition in the
contemporary world that was not addressed in the original edition
of the book. Updating this material re-establishes the book's
priority and relevance, especially in its expansion of
representation of artists of color and artists in popular culture,
and reinforces its appeal not only as a popular read, but as a
classroom textbook or resource at the university level.
