Women in the Picture: What Culture Does with Female Bodies by Catherine McCormack
informative
medium-paced
5.0
I’ve never been particularly interested in art, but I am interested in feminist literature so I thought this book would be a fun way to expand my reading.
I loved it. As an art novice I feel like I learned so much and the author explained the significance, origins, and evolution of each archetype in a way that easy to digest as a newbie.
A very strong intention on being intersectional! Way more than “and here’s a chapter about POC women.” Queer and BIPOC women and their relationship to the chapter topic were discussed in every chapter.
