About this listen
Historically, major women artists have been excluded from the mainstream art canon. Aligned with the resurgence of feminism in pop culture, Broad Strokes offers an entertaining corrective to that omission. Art historian Bridget Quinn delves into the lives and careers of 15 brilliant female artists in this smart, feisty, educational, and enjoyable book.
This is art history from 1600 to the present day for the modern art lover and feminist.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

There can never be too much art
Amazing art works from talented women. History might not view then as they do men of their times. But these women created art on their own terms & I’m so grateful they are being shared with the world now. Honestly just wish it was longer with more artists I love hearing about artists & in directions I wouldn’t think to look. Enjoy.

Very annoying narrator, weird inflections
Very annoying narrator, weird inflections on pretty much every sentence. Like she is telling a fairy tale. Author is just whinging and whinging about women in the art world, not slightly inspiring at all, you get a real sense she is very annoyed at the world. Also clearly has a massive ego, why does she keep talking about herself like that? I don't care what she is wearing, why keep describing what you used to wear and how your hair was? What point are you trying to make exactly? Also, she likes art, big deal, join the rest of the population, she thinks liking art makes her a better person somehow. Romanticising her studies.
