Women Art Workers and the Arts and Crafts Movement
Angebote / Angebote:
Women art workers constitutes the first comprehensive history of the network of women who worked at the heart of the English Arts and Crafts movement from the 1870s to the 1930s. Challenging the long-standing assumption that Arts and Crafts solely revolved around celebrated male designers like William Morris, this book instead offers a new social and cultural account, which simultaneously reveals the breadth of the imprint of women art workers upon the making of modern society. From their precarious gendered positions, they opened up the movement to a wider range of social backgrounds and interests, and redirected its radical potential into contemporary women-centred causes.
