Holiday Gift Staff Pick: 'Women Painting Women'

Featured spreads (with work by María Berrío, Ania Hobson and Dana Schutz) are from Holiday Gift Staff Pick Women Painting Women—a book that needs no explanation! NPR's Susan Stanberg writes, "So, how do women paint women? It's less about seeing them differently from men, than showing them different. For centuries, artists' male gaze saw women as objects of desire, idealized and voluptuous, with luscious white skin and dimpled knees. Women artists in this exhibition, like Alice Neel and Emma Amos and others, show women as differently beautiful: pregnant, overweight, sometimes despondent. As we are, wrapped in our truths." And Forbes' Chad Scott concurs: "A tour de force of portraiture from women over the past half century, “women’s work” their male contemporaries could only dream of matching."
