Title: A Lost World of Women Artists
Review: As someone who teaches the History of Women Artists on the college level, this book is a valuable addition to my library of books devoted to this topic. I was aware of some of the women featured in this book, but most of these individuals are absolutely new to me. There is no question that these professional women possessed the drive and the talent to establish interesting careers, and yet most of them fell into obscurity except perhaps on the regional level. The history of Modern American Art has generally been associated with the east coast but this book is a revelation and a very juicy one at that. So many different visions expressed with competence and flare. Anyone interested in the development of 20th century painting and unearthing the work of women artists who have been sidelined by time and male dominance, this book will provide some serious pleasure.
