Gandharan art developed around the first century BCE till the fourth century CE in parts of present-day Afghanistan and Pakistan and has been the focus of intense scholarly debates in both Classical and South Asian Studies for many decades. In this book, Ashwini Lakshminarayan offers for the first time a specialized study on gender using Gandharan material culture and convincingly proposes new readings of visual culture beyond Eurocentric and postcolonial interpretations. This book sets the stage with a detailed overview of the contexts in which Gandharan art was located in Buddhist sites by analysing the gendered use of space, and the gender and activities of donors and administrators. At its core, the book gives prominence to the stone reliefs of Gandhara and examines how male and female bodies are represented, how they interact, and how gender symbolised ideals and values. With an important comparative overview of the Gandharan artistic production and new illustrations, this work is indispensable for all those interested in the study of gender in ancient art, the interaction between Graeco-Roman and Indic cultures, and the development of the early Buddhist artistic tradition in South and Central Asia that also shaped Buddhist visual culture eastwards in China.

Women, Gender and Art in Asia, c. 1500?1900 brings women's engagements with art into a pan-Asian dialogue with essays that examine women as artists, commissioners, collectors, and subjects from India, Southeast Asia, Tibet, China, Korea, and Japan, from the sixteenth to the early twentieth century. The artistic media includes painting, sculpture, architecture, textiles, and photography. The book is broadly concerned with four salient questions: How unusual was it for women to engage directly with art? What factors precluded more women from doing so? In what ways did women's artwork or commissions differ from those of men? And, what were the range of meanings for woman as subject matter? The chapters deal with historic individuals about whom there is considerable biographical information. Beyond locating these uncommon women within their socio-cultural milieux, contributors consider the multiple strands that twined to comprise their complex identities, and how these impacted their works of art. In many cases, the woman's status-as wife, mother, widow, ruler, or concubine (and multiple combinations thereof), as well as her religion and lineage-determined the media, style, and content of her art. Women, Gender and Art in Asia, c. 1500?1900 adds to our understanding of works of art, their meanings, and functions.

Gender Check is the first comprehensive exhibition featuring art from Eastern Europe since the 1960s based on the theme of gender roles. 20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the curator Bojana Peji?, along with a team of experts from 24 different countries, has put together a selection of over 400 works including paintings, sculpture, installations, photography, posters, films and videos. With over 200 artists, the exhibition paints an exceptionally diverse picture of a chapter in art history that until recently had been largely unknown and that could also act as an important addition to contemporary gender discourse. Published on the occasion of the exhibition in 2009/10 at Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig, Vienna, and at Zacheta National Gallery of Art, Warsaw. English text.

This detailed study of the issues surrounding discrimination against women throughout the history of Buddhism focuses on the foundations and evolution of Buddhist thought. The author, trained as a physicist, became interested in the Buddhist view of women and researched the topic over the course of 10 years. He's also the author of several other works on Buddhism. Here, he concludes from his readings of Buddhist texts that both male and female principles are indispensable for the perfection of personality. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
