Vision and Difference: Feminism, Femininity and Histories of Art

by Griselda Pollock
RM49.00 MYR

Feminist critique of art's historical sexual politics.

If you're someone who has ever contemplated the intersection of gender and art, "Vision and Difference" is indispensable. Griselda Pollock's sharp analysis digs into how modern culture and art were shaped by gender dynamics, and her perspective is especially compelling if you're keen to uncover the oft-overlooked influence of female artists. It's a thought-provoking read that challenges and educates, reshaping the traditional narratives of art history.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Griselda Pollock provides concrete historical analyses of key moments in the formation of modern culture to reveal the sexual politics at the heart of modernist art. Crucially, she not only explores a feminist re-reading of the works of canonical male Impressionist and Pre-Raphaelite artists including Edgar Degas and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, but also re-inserts into art history their female contemporaries - women artists such as Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt. Pollock discusses the work of women artists such as Mary Kelly and Yve Lomax, highlighting the problems of working in a culture where the feminine is still defined as the object of the male gaze. Now published with a new introduction, Vision and Difference is as powerful as ever for all those seeking not only to understand the history of the feminine in art, but also to develop new strategies for representation for the future.
