Opis
Quotations from leading women artists paired with iconic paintings, offering powerful insights into their creative journeys and the challenges they've faced over 150 years.
Art is a language beyond words - and for women artists, it has long been a way to comment, dream and demand to be seen. But that does not make the written and spoken words of these women any less eloquent and insightful. Women Artists in Their Own Words is a rich and inspiring collection of quotations from female artists from Impressionism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism to the present day. Here, the thoughts of 95 painters, sculptors and photographers offer glimpses into the hearts and minds behind provocative, dynamic and captivating art from the last 150 years. Alongside the words of each artist is one of her works in the remarkable collection of Christian Levett, founder of FAMM, the museum of art devoted solely to women.
From the quiet strength of Mary Cassatt and the revolutionary spirit of Frida Kahlo to the fierce independence of Lee Krasner; from the fearless honesty of Alice Neel and the unflinching lens of Nan Goldin to the raw intensity of Marina Abramović, this book captures the essence of what it means to create - not only with hands but also with conviction and resilience. These quotations reveal the artists' joys, struggles, philosophies and commitment to their visions. In her introduction, Jennifer Samet explores the state of 'flow' - an all-consuming engagement in the art-making process - experienced by many of these women.
Whether you seek a spark of inspiration or a deeper understanding of the challenges and triumphs that have shaped modern art, this collection brings together the vivid, though-provoking voices of women who have expressed their inner worlds through powerful acts of creation.
