Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

How many women artists do you know? Who makes art history? Did women even work as artists before the 20th century? And what is the Baroque anyway?

Discover the glittering Sofonisba Anguissola of the Renaissance, the radical work of Harriet Powers in 19th-century USA and the artist who really invented the Readymade. Explore the Dutch Golden Age, the astonishing work of post-War artists in Latin America and the women artists defining art in the 2020s. Have your sense of art history overturned and your eyes opened to many art forms often overlooked or dismissed. From the Cornish coast to Manhattan, Nigeria to Japan, this is the history of art as it's never been told before.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

Katy Hessel is a brilliant chronicler of the overlooked. I am so thrilled this book exists as an empowering, enlightening guide to the unforgettable vision of these brilliant artists. Essential reading (Elizabeth Day)
An inspiring, beautifully written corrective (Bidisha Mamata)
Will change the history of art... thank God. (Tracey Emin)
Excellent, authoritative, exuberant and elegantly written (Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of STALIN: THE COURT OF THE RED TSAR)
I was not aware how hungry I was for this book until I dropped everything and ate it from cover to cover. I was not aware how angry I was that this book did not exist until it existed. It's an urgently needed, un-put-downable, joyful, insightful, glorious, perspective-shifting revision of the Story of Art. (Es Devlin)
