  <default-description>This text examines three decades of work by the artist, Nancy Spero. Her subject matter, the depiction of women, has ranged from the writings of Artaud to the Vietnam war. She collages and imprints her images of contemporary goddesses onto long papyrus-like friezes that scroll around walls, combining totemic figures with mythological and historical chronicles. This book also includes Spero's own writings many of which are published for the first time. The book is part of a series of studies of important artists of the late-20th century. Each title offers a comprehensive survey of the artist's work, providing analyses and multiple perspectives on contemporary art and its inspiration.</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[Nancy spero's work embodies the intelligence and creativity of feminist art. This book includes wonderful reproductions of drawings, prints and installation shots. Check it out ladies and gents. Irreverent, playful, intense, and some times totally pissed. That's how we love our women and their work.<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/13154482">more...</a>]]></body>
