Description
| Written by Rachel* Ignotovsky / Translated by Momo Nonaka Women have been the motif of many paintings and sculptures since ancient times, but women themselves have long been restricted from taking up the paintbrush, leading production teams, creating works of art, and expressing themselves freely on any given theme. [For many years, women were forbidden to work with certain motifs simply because they were women, or were denied a place in an industry dominated by male-centered values, or lacked proper recognition. Although many women artists are active today, there is still a clear gender imbalance in the value of their work, the percentage of their work in exhibitions, and the number and treatment of museum managers. This book introduces, with charming illustrations, the activities of 50 women artists from around the world who have demonstrated their talents in a wide range of artistic genres, including fine art, poetry, sculpture, photography, ceramics, architecture, and design, and whose unconventional and free expression has shaken up society. The latest work by Rachel Ignotovsky, an up-and-coming illustrator who has previously celebrated great women in the worlds of science, technology, and sports. In her "home" world of art, Ignatovsky draws out the human appeal of the heroines who have defied race, class, and gender discrimination to express themselves powerfully and move people's hearts. This book is not limited to so-called "fine art. It also features designers who find beauty in practicality in fashion, furniture, and architecture; quilters and potters who pass on the history and traditions of their peoples to the future; graphic designers, animators, and many other artists who are leading new media. [The breadth of the word "art," the diversity of the roles it plays, and the energy it brings to the table will be keenly felt. [Highlights of this book] *Introduces 50 women artists (+α) who have turned their attention to what has been overlooked by society and sublimated it into creative artistic expression. *This book is full of trivia, from their activities as artists to their personal lives. You can learn about their fascinating life stories in a concise manner. *Includes fun columns such as a list of production tools, basic knowledge of color *design theory, and a historical timeline [People who are featured in the book include] Noboru Kado (poet*painter), Harriet Powers (quilter), Mary Cassatt (painter), Nanpeyo (ceramicist), Beatrix Potter (author*illustrator), Jeanne Paquin (fashion designer), Georgia O'Keefe (painter), Augusta Savage (sculptor) ), Lee*Miller (photographer), Frida*Kahlo (painter), Mary*Blair (animator), Ray*Eames (industrial designer), Yayoi Kusama (painter*sculptor*installation artist), Wendy*Karros (composer), Paula*Share ( graphic designer), Kazuyo Sejima (architect), Shirin Chanet (photographer * film director), etc. ... |
