Den perfekte blanding af akademisk undersøgelse og journalistisk formidling. Informativ, letlæselig og flere gange endda humoristisk. Stiller skarpt på både de åbenlyse og de mere subtile årsager til et problem, vi stadig ser tydeligt her 50 år efter essayets publikation.

The big is full of interesting info about past views on woman in art. The book is essay form and can be challenging to read but worth it.

Fra den noe glisne kunstteori-hylla på Bergen offentlige.
Treffer alle spikere vi trenger i det mest grunnleggende stillaset for likestilling.
Presisjon på bekostning av nyanser, men det kan man finne hos e.g. Lauren Elkin & Frances Borzello & Audre Lorde & Chris Kraus etc.
Vil nå lese & konsumere ALT!!!
I fint samspill med Susan Sontags Against Interpretation, som jeg slukte til frokost. Tenker på Checkout 19 (Bennett) & Crystal Pite & Second Place (Cusk). Elsker å leve i 2024 med verkene til alle disse kvinnene.

A long reading for my uni class, at points it dragged on a bit, but overall, is very interesting, has very good points and is a well-written piece of scholarly literature on women in art. I see why it’s an art historical classic

"Could it be that the little golden nugget - Genius - is missing from the aristocratic make-up in the same way that it is from the feminine psyche?
Or rather, is it not, that the kinds of demands and expectations placed before both aristocrats and women - the amount of time necessarily devoted to social functions, the very kinds of activities demanded - simply made total devotion to professional art production out of the question, indeed unthinkable, for both upper-class males and for women generally, rather than its being a question of genius and talent?"
