Cet ouvrage, abondamment illustré d’œuvres tirées de la collection du Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, constitue un hommage sans précédent à une centaine de femmes qui ont contribué à la vitalité de l’art québécois du XX e siècle. Le premier chapitre, intitulé La conquête d’un espace, 1900-1965 , est consacré aux premières décennies du siècle, alors que le second, L’éclatement des frontières, 1965-2000 , embrasse la période contemporaine. Enfin, une troisième section en forme de dictionnaire présente des notices biographiques sur les 100 artistes retenues. Ce livre est le premier titre de la collection « Arts du Québec », qui veut ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives sur l’art d’ici en explorant l’histoire de l’art québécois dans toute sa diversité, tout en convoquant des dimensions sociologiques, thématiques ou esthétiques inédites.
