A pioneering force in the feminist art movement the 1970s, Miriam Schapiro (b. 1923) is an internationally renowned artist.

Expand description
Best known for her large heart -- and fan-shaped canvases layered with fabric and paint, Schapiro helped launch the Pattern and Decoration movement of the 1970s and '80s and developed a richly decorative style that has influenced a generation of younger artists. Noted scholar Linda Nochlin contributes an insightful foreword, while Gouma-Peterson draws from Schapiro's writings to convey the artist's reflections on art, art history, and the feminist movement.
