The essay that changed art history. Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists? is Linda Nochlin's seminal 1971 work — widely credited as the first real attempt at a feminist history of art — now available in a standalone anniversary edition.
Nochlin refused to answer the titular question on its own corrupted terms. Instead, she dismantled the very concept of "greatness," unraveling the assumptions that produced the male-centric genius canon and questioning the white male viewpoint of art history itself. This edition pairs the original essay with her later reappraisal "Thirty Years After," which reflects on the emergence of a new canon through the lens of Joan Mitchell, Louise Bourgeois, Cindy Sherman, and others. A rallying cry that resonates as urgently now as ever.
The essay that broke the canon open.
