Seller's Description:
VG+/VG: Some wear to the dust jacket. The book is clean and bright. Light gray cloth boards. There is a teal dust jacket with the title in white down the spine. The free and pasted end pages have a sheen to them. Pages: (8), 9-559, (1). Profusely illustrated with both color and black-and-white images. "With greater energy than any artistic movement before, the feminist avant-garde of the 1970s deconstructed society's image of womanhood, dismantling centuries' worth of projections, stereotypes, and male hegemony. For the first time in the history of art, women, in an act of collective consciousness-raising, took the representation of their sex in visual art into their own hands and unfolded a wide spectrum of self-determined female identities: provocative and radical, poetic and ironic. Gabriele Schor, director of the Sammlung Verbund Collection, coined the term the Feminist Avant-Garde in order to highlight the pioneering achievements of these artists. This book presents over six hundred works in the Sammlung Verbund Collection created by forty-eight women artists."
