Subject: Important Recent Book on Woman Artist


Dear Colleagues:

I want to draw your attention to an important recent publication on a woman
artist.


Dwyer, Britta C.  Anna Klumpke:  Turn-of-the-Century Painter and Her World.
Boston:  Northeastern University Press, 1999.  (cl: alk. paper)  222 p. :
ill. (some col.) ; 25 cm.
ISBN  1555533868  $35.00


This detailed study of American portraitist Anna Klumpke traces her rise to
prominence in the art worlds of Paris and Boston against the backdrop of
fin-de-siecle culture.  Addressing the two themes of "women and art" and
"women and choices" the book highlights the complex and complicated concerns
for women of that era.  Drawing on a wide spectrum of sources from art
history to psychology, Britta Dwyer's multilayered academic perspective will
be a model for future biographical studies of women artists.
