Women's Art Work: More than 30 Female Artists Who Changed the World

by Sophia Bennett Author and Manjitt Thapp Author

In this history of incredible female artists, author Sophia Bennett dives into the biographies of more than 30 influential artists from over the centuries. Including a foreword from the first female director of the Tate Museum, Maria Balshaw, Bennett's book traces the emergence of new art forms through the creators that brought about these trends, and situates each artist within the broader evolution of visual arts. Sure to challenge your notions of what art is and can be, Women's Art Work is a compelling and comprehensive chronicle of women's contributions to art history.
