"The Power of Feminist Art is not a book: it's a milestone. . . . Until Power, feminist art has been conspicuously absent from standard academic narratives. . . . Now, no critic or historian, conservative or not, can argue that feminist art is insignificant."--Elizabeth Hess, Village Voice. 270 illustrations, 118 in full color.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Available in paperback for the first time, this landmark volume is the only comprehensive history of American feminist art available. Exhaustively researched, this book is encyclopedic in its documentation of the feminist art movement, which began more than 25 years ago in the United States, and that ultimately transformed the art world. The editors have brought together 18 influential art historians, critics, and artists to explore every aspect of feminist art. There are more than 270 illustrations (118 in full color) that feature the work of women painters, sculptors, photographers, and performance artists, and a fold-out, illustrated timeline presenting a selective chronology of important events in and surrounding the movement, from its earliest roots in the 1940s to the mid-1990s.

From Publishers Weekly

Collection of essays exploring various aspects of the feminist art movement.

5.0 out of 5 stars I fell in love with this book the first time I found it ...

This book is extraordinary; the essays are fascinating, the reproductions are all high quality, and the art is in fact tremendously powerful. Here are gorgeous artworks that tell important, if rarely heard, stories about the history of gender in America. I fell in love with this book the first time I found it in a library years ago and I've been occasionally purchasing since. I'm doing so again today!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Essential Art History Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2003
This is currently my favorite art book. This is great collection of the artwork produced by female artists during the women's movement in the 70's and 80's. This book also chronicles this art movement and it effect on the 80's and very early 90's. Including many articles and thorough documentation of artwork this book is a smart look the amazing art that women created.
This book is essential to truly understand modern art history.

An eye-opening and jaw-dropping book. It's nice to sit down with this book and look back at the wonderful collection of art and its emergence into a dialogue about women and art. This book was on my wishlist for a few years and I am so glad I finally purchased it!

1.0 out of 5 stars The Phaidon Press Book is Better
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2005
The quality of the art covered in this book is highly uneven and many of the theories are terribly dated by today's standards. I get the impression that it was written more to promote the friends of the authors than to give an objective view of Feminist art. The Phaidon Press book,  Art and Feminism (Themes & Movements) , is MUCH better to the point that I am almost embarrassed to compare the two books.

There is a school of Feminist research that seems to equate technical accomplishment with patriarchy which conveniently allows mediocre art to seem quite important. Overall, the art in this book lacks guts, although some of it is good. Since it is no longer the only book of its type, get it only if you want to round off your collection. Otherwise, stick with the Phaidon Press book to which this one merely pales in comparrison.
