- Essays on Their Art

About 25 Women

This books presents Dave Hickey doing what he does best: writing about art. These essays amount to his finest work on contemporary women artists. As he says, there exist numerous books about individual female artists, but hardly a one that presents women in multiple--in their full, rich diversity. Dedicated to the late museum director Marcia Tucker, the book journeys across the planet to engage with artists from the late Joan Mitchell, to Vija Celmins, Alexis Smith, Sarah Charlesworth, Bridget Riley, and Lynda Benglis and on to younger artists Pia Fries, Roni Horn, Elizabeth Peyton. Jennifer Steinkamp, and many more. A complement of color images rounds out the volume. Hickey also provides an introduction written especially for the volume.
