A must for all those interested in women artists and the women who have written about them.\"--Linda Nochlin, author of \u003ci\u003eRepresenting Women\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Kristen Frederickson and Sarah Webb have provided us with a missing link, a truly feminist art history that connects with the work done in the 1970s and thankfully ignores the 'post-feminist' hiatus. \u003ci\u003eSingular Women\u003c\/i\u003e is a model for future scholarship on women's art. If only the books it inspires are as rigorous, vigorous, varied, and readable as this one.\"--Lucy Lippard, author of \u003ci\u003eThe Pink Glass Swan: Selected Feminist Essays on Art\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The most provocative, challenging, and intimate writing to appear in feminist art history since Linda Nochlin launched the field with her essay 'Why Are There No Great Women Artists?' Thirty years later there are both great women artists and great women writers. This book assembles some of the best and boldest among them. Not afraid to address the boring, the failed, the neglected, or the masterpiece, \u003ci\u003eSingular Women\u003c\/i\u003e sets the standard for feminist art history of the twenty-first century.\"--Peggy Phelan, author of the survey essay in\u003ci\u003e Art and Feminism,\u003c\/i\u003e ed. Helena Reckitt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This important volume addresses the vexed question whether the traditional monograph, rightly under suspicion in recent years, can be reinvented to serve feminist art history well. Its excellent--and varied--essays answer with a confident and convincing affirmative, demonstrating how we can talk about women's art practice without abandoning the biographical and social stories that enable and illuminate it.\"--Janet Wolff, author of \u003ci\u003eResident Alien: Feminist Cultural Criticism\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Contributes new understandings to the now familiar problems of writing biographies of artists and, in particular, writing about a woman artist. It re-inscribes the woman artist in the discourse while probing--through a variety of approaches--the possibilities for a critical discourse on and appreciation of the woman artist.\"--Catherine M.

The reader is allowed to see the desire that constitutes, but is normally hidden within, the writing of history.\"--Jane Blocker, author of \u003ci\u003eWhere Is Ana Mendieta?
