Description

Have you ever walked into any museum, or open any art book, and wonder: where are all the ladies at?? A Big Important Art Book (Now with Women) offers a very necessary alternative to a very male-dominated art world. The book showcases the work by dozens of contemporary female artists alongside practical prompts that encourage creativity in anyone.

If you’re looking for a book that can energise and encourage female empowerment, this is the book to do just that. It encourages both artists and amateurs alike, by providing them with art projects and human stories to get in the flow of art making. Each chapter leads with an assignment that speaks to the inner artist, steering the reader towards making exciting new work and become a trail blazer in their own right. With interviews, images, and stories from contemporary female artists who are at the top of their game provide added inspiration, and shining a light on art “herstory” to include the work of pioneering women from the past. With a stunning, gift-forward package and just the right amount of pop culture-infused feminism, this book is sure to capture the imaginations of aspiring women artists.
