This book contains portraits of 51 women artists in their personal space, their studios and other locations of their choice. 30 of the portraits were created in an 11 week period following receipt of the Leff/Davis Fund for Visual Artists in October, 2014. Those 30 were exhibited in February, 2015 at Archival Gallery in Sacramento, CA. The remaining 21 portraits of women artists are from my archive of artist portraits now numbering almost 300. This project was begun in 1979. The purpose of this catalog and the exhibition it accompanies is to address the need for gender equity in both the world of art and my personal portrait archive.

"Mirror Mirror explores the history and function of the self-portrait in the work of forty women artists, from the seventeenth century to the present day. It covers works in all media, from oil painting to photography, from woodcut to ceramic sculpture, and includes self-portraits from such major artists as Mary Beale, Gwen John and Dame Barbara Hepworth; as well as lesser-known figures such as the Zinkeisen sisters, Madame Yevonde and Lee Miller. There are also portraits by women artists known primarily for their work in other media - including the self-portrait relief by Susie Cooper." "The works themselves appear chronologically, and include full biographical details of the artists. They are supported by essays from two leading art historians in this academic field: Whitney Chadwick, who discusses ideas of style and technique, including the artists' exploration of their own identity, and Frances Borzello, who presents the historical background and artistic context to the illustrated works."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The first survey of women's self-portraiture to be focused exclusively on painting, this book opens with an original attempt to reconstruct from contemporary accounts the work of artists of antiquity such as Marcia, Timarete and Eirene. The authors then select self-portraits by a range of European and American painters up to the present day to narrate the stylistic development of women's self-representation in those parts of the world. The story of the self-portrait offers fascinating insights which deepen our understanding of these artists' working lives, priorities and preoccupations. With its chronological sweep, its lavish illustrations, including many works which have not been reproduced in print before, and its extensive bibliography, this book is an indispensable guide to a fascinating subject.

This title was first published in 2000: In this volume, the authors trace the development of women's representation of themselves as artists from antiquity to the present day. Identity and beauty are two of the most difficult and unstable concepts in art history and this account articulates many of the issues related to the portrayal of women's bodies. Arranged chronologically by chapter, each period is described by a specialist author. Beginning with recorded accounts of the work of artists such as Marcia Timarete and Eirene, the authors take their examination through to the present day and the work of Louise Bourgeois, Howardena Pindell and Paula Rego. Self-portraits can disclose fascinating details about the painters' lives, their studios, their education, their ability to travel, and their relationship to past artistic accomplishments. The setting, the posture, the activity of the sitter can all express confidence, or the lack of it, in the artist's own professional status. They are also interventions in contemporary debate on the representation of women and notions of beauty. In the 20th century in particular, the self-portrait becomes a strategic site in which women artists challenge notions of womanhood and beauty.

Paris was the epicenter of art during the latter half of the nineteenth century, luring artists from around the world with its academies, museums, salons, and galleries. Despite the city's cosmopolitanism and its cultural stature, Parisian society remained strikingly conservative, particularly with respect to gender. Nonetheless, many women painters chose to work and study in Paris at this time, overcoming immense obstacles to access the city's resources. 'Women Artists in Paris, 1850-1900' showcases the remarkable artistic production of women during this period of great cultural change, revealing the breadth and strength of their creative achievements. Guest Curator Laurence Madeline (Chief Curator at Musées d'art et d'histoire, Geneva) has selected close to seventy compelling paintings by women of varied nationalities, ranging from well-known artists such as Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, and Rosa Bonheur, to lesser-known figures such as Kitty Kielland, Louise Breslau, and Anna Ancher.

This essential volume reveals a parallel yet equally engaging history of art for an age that champions a greater diversity of voices. "Real changes are upon us, and today one can reel off the names of a number of first-rate women artists. Nevertheless, women are just getting started."—The New Yorker

Women Artists in Interwar France: Framing Femininities illuminates the importance of the Soci? des Femmes Artists Modernes, more commonly known as FAM, and returns this group to its proper place in the history of modern art. In particular, this volume explores how FAM and its most famous members?Suzanne Valadon, Marie Laurencin, and Tamara de Lempicka?brought a new approach to the most prominent themes of female embodiment: the self-portrait, motherhood, and the female nude. These women reimagined art's conventions and changed the direction of both art history and the politics of their contemporary art world. FAM has been excluded from histories of modern art despite its prominence during the interwar years. Paula Birnbaum's study redresses this omission, contextualizing the group's legacy in light of the conservative politics of 1930s France. The group's artistic response to the reactionary views and images of women at the time is shown to be a key element in the narrative of modernist formalism. Although many FAM works are missing?one reason for the lack of attention paid to their efforts?Birnbaum's extensive research, through archives, press clippings, and first-hand interviews with artists' families, reclaims FAM as an important chapter in the history of art from the interwar years.
