''L'art a-t-il un genre ? Aujourd'hui encore le discours de l'histoire de l'art s'écrit essentiellement au masculin. On dirait que les femmes n'ont jamais pris part à ce processus, que l'art exige encore et toujours une performance liée à l'idée de masculinité. Adoptant le point de vue des femmes et s'appuyant sur des recherches en histoire de l'art, ce livre réévalue leur place et leur rôle dans la fabrique des arts. Il offre une large fresque (de - 42000 à l'époque contemporaine) où femmes et hommes dialoguent ensemble pour reconstruire notre mémoire culturelle d'une manière plus égalitaire, équilibrée et donc plus solide, tout en tenant compte des tensions de genre qui s'impriment dans le discours. Il offre également une riche iconographie, dont certaines oeuvres que vous n'avez encore jamais vues de votre vie !''-- Site de l'éditeur.

This volume is the third in an influential series of anthologies by editors Norma Broude and Mary D. Garrard that challenge art history from a feminist perspective. Following their Feminism and Art History: Questioning the Litany (1982) and The Expanding Discourse: Feminism and Art History (1992), this new volume identifies female agency as a central theme of recent feminist scholarship. Framed by a lucid and stimulating critical introduction, twenty-three essays on artists and issues from the Renaissance to the present, written in the 1990s and after, offer a nuanced critique of the poststructuralist premises of 1980s feminist art history.

The history of Western art is saturated with images of the female body. Lynda Nead's The Female Nude was the first book to critically examine this phenomenon from a feminist perspective and ask: how and why did the female nude acquire this status? In a deft and engaging manner, Lynda Nead explores the ways in which acceptable and unacceptable images of the female body are produced, issues which have been reignited by current controversies around the patriarchy, objectification and pornography. Nead brilliantly illustrates the two opposing poles occupied by the female nude in the history of art; at one extreme the visual culmination of enlightenment aesthetics; at the other, spilling over into the degraded and the obscene. What both have in common, however, is the aim of containing the female body. Drawing on examples of art and artists from the classical period to the 1980s, The Female Nude paints a devastating picture of the depiction of the female body and remains as fresh and invigorating today as it was at the time of its first publication.
