This 5th edition of one of the best-selling World of Art titles features a completely new chapter that charts the evolution of feminist art history and pedagogy since the 1970s, revealing how artists have developed and subverted the strategies of feminism. It is brought up to date with discussion of some of the most significant international women artists to have emerged in recent years, including Wangechi Mutu, Pae White, Yael Bartana, Jenny Saville and Teresa Margolles. ‘Packed with information, controversy, argument and very good art’ – Times Educational Supplement ‘An enormously useful work’ – The Sunday Times
