Gendering Landscape Art

Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2000. First Paperback Edition; First Impression. Original decorated wrappers. ISBN: 0719056284. With illustrations. Slight wear to spine, covers & corners. Spine somewhat creased. ; "Gendering Landscape Art" is a thought-provoking book that examines how gender influences the interpretation and creation of landscape art. The collection, edited by Steven Adams and Anna Gruetzner Robins, brings together essays that explore the intersections of gender, art, and landscape from various historical and contemporary perspectives. The book challenges traditional views of landscape art as a predominantly male genre by highlighting the significant contributions of female artists and analyzing landscapes through a gendered lens. It discusses how the representation of landscapes can reflect and perpetuate gendered identities and roles, while also offering a space for questioning and subverting these norms. With contributions from diverse scholars, "Gendering Landscape Art" not only broadens the understanding of landscape art but also enriches the discourse on gender in art history, making it a valuable resource for scholars and students alike in the fields of art history and gender studies. ; Critical Perspectives In Art History; Octavo; x, 230 pages.

Through the lens, the reader is invited to contemplate the interaction between water and land, wildlife and vegetation, highlighting the delicate balance and intrinsic link between these elements. "Listening to the River" not only showcases the artistic prowess of the photographer but also serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of conservation and respect for the natural world. This book was part of the extensive photography library of Chris Steele-Perkins, whose work with Magnum Photos has often focused on profound social and environmental issues. Steele-Perkins’ interest in "Listening to the River: Seasons in the American West" reflects his broader concern with the narrative of landscape and its inhabitants, a recurring theme in his documentary projects. His work often emphasizes the significance of place and the human stories within, mirroring the contemplative nature of this book. His involvement with Magnum has enabled him to explore these themes on a global scale, capturing both the beauty and the plight of varied environments. Owning this book aligns with Steele-Perkins' commitment to using photography as a tool for awareness and change, underscoring his ongoing engagement with environmental themes and his appreciation for the storytelling power of landscape photography. ; Quarto oblong; 110 pages.
