About this product

Product Information

During the 1930s and 1940s, women artists associated with the Surrealist movement produced a significant body of self-images that have no equivalent among the works of their male colleagues. While male artists exalted Woman's otherness in fetishized images, women artists explored their own subjective worlds. The self-images of Claude Cahun, Dorothea Tanning, Leonora Carrington, Frida Kahlo, Meret Oppenheim, Remedios Varo, Kay Sage and others both internalize and challenge conventions for representing femininity, the female body, and female subjectivity. Many of the representational strategies employed by these pioneers continue to resonate in the work of contemporary women artists. The words Surrealist and surrealism appear frequently in discussions of such contemporary artists as Louise Bourgeois, Ana Mendieta, Cindy Sherman, Francesca Woodman, Kiki Smith, Dorothy Cross, Michiko Kon and Paula Santigo.

Reviews
"Mirror Imagesis a welcome successor to Whitney Chadwick's significant work on the hitherto neglected history of women and surrealism. An impressive list of contributors explores the byways, bringing this tragic, funny, and engrossing story up to recent times." -Lucy Lippard, author of The Pink Glass Swan: Selected Essays on Feminist Art
