These essays on nine women artists are framed by the question, born of feminism, "What evaluative criteria can be applied to women's art?" In the case of surrealism, in particular, some have claimed that surrealist women artists must either redraw the lines of their practice or participate in the movement's misogyny. Krauss resists that claim, for these "bachelors" are artists whose expressive strategies challenge the very ideals of unity and mastery identified with masculinist aesthetics. Some of this work (such as that of Louise Bourgeois or Cindy Sherman) could be said to find its power in strategies associated with such concepts as <i>écriture feminine</i>. <i>Bachelors</i> attempts to do justice to these and other artists (Claude Cahun, Dora Maar, Louise Lawler, Francesca Woodman) in the terms their works demand. 690014 1999 Bachelors (October Books) total:12|5:4|4:5|3:3|2:0|1:0| 12 49 20 2 3 0 false false Sat Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2002 Thu Jan 08 23:21:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 08 23:21:40 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Tue Nov 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Wed Aug 08 08:28:13 -0700 2007 Wed Aug 08 08:47:08 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Oct 21 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 21 18:41:09 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 21 18:41:22 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Sep 08 09:27:53 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 09:28:00 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Feb 20 21:27:44 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 20 21:27:44 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sat Sep 20 12:47:55 -0700 2008 Thu Dec 04 13:46:28 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Jul 27 17:06:43 -0700 2008 Fri Nov 14 17:17:15 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Wed Jul 23 18:28:18 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 23 18:28:18 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Mon Jul 07 14:08:09 -0700 2008 Mon Jul 07 14:08:09 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Jun 12 00:42:06 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 12 00:42:06 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sun May 25 11:43:51 -0700 2008 Sun May 25 11:43:57 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sat Mar 01 14:29:11 -0800 2008 Sat Mar 01 14:29:11 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sat Mar 01 11:09:14 -0800 2008 Sat Mar 01 11:09:14 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Feb 11 21:22:29 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 11 21:22:29 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sun Feb 10 18:46:42 -0800 2008 Sun Feb 10 18:46:42 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Fri Feb 08 17:46:13 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 08 18:02:39 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Jan 28 13:00:02 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 28 13:00:10 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Fri Jan 18 18:30:15 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 18 18:30:15 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Dec 27 08:14:17 -0800 2007 Thu Dec 27 08:14:17 -0800 2007 0 0 false false Sun Dec 23 14:04:59 -0800 2007 Sun Dec 23 14:04:59 -0800 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=133235
