These trailblazing artists shattered taboos with their depictions of the male nude, the Black female nude, the pregnant nude, and even the rare nude self-portrait. Their work not only challenged the boundaries of modernism but also paved the way for later feminist artists and thinkers.
Lauren Jimerson's meticulously researched and beautifully written account places these women at the heart of the avant-garde, revealing the cultural stereotypes and gender regimes they worked against. Complete with numerous previously unpublished images, including 16 pages of colour illustrations, the book offers a fresh and intersectional feminist perspective on class, privilege, and race alongside gender.
Whether you're an art historian, a feminist scholar, or simply someone inspired by stories of creative defiance, Painting her pleasure is an essential addition to your collection. -- .
