Recenzii
“There will never be too many books teaching Women’s Herstory. Brodsky and Olin’s case studies describe the outrageous and humiliating strangleholds all women have endured and continue to face. Brodsky and Olin champion us to reach our goals.”
“New histories need to be written. Preserving stories that complicate and enrich mainstream narratives is vitally important, and the inspired and inspiring contributions groundbreaking women have made to our cultural world deserve to be celebrated. In addition to leading this charge themselves in their own remarkable careers, with the publication of Junctures in Women’s Leadership: The Arts, Judith Brodsky and Ferris Olin have given us the gift of expanding the canon through these remarkable case studies in creative leadership in the arts.”
“Here's a round of applause for Judith Brodsky and Ferris Olin, founders of the Rutgers Institute for Women and Art (now the Rutgers Center for Women in the Arts and Humanities, the first feminist art center on a university campus) and heartfelt thanks for Junctures in Women's Leadership: The Arts, their rich insights into generations of women leaders in the arts on the global stage. As arts leaders in their own right and as historians of the rich tradition to which they belong, Brodsky and Olin document feminist cultural history as, just as importantly, they continue to make it. We are doubly in their debt.”
" Recommended."
"This much-needed volume, with its primary focus on visual arts professionals, brings attention to a group of women whose biographies have not been joined before....[Brodsky and Olin's] sound scholarship is essential to advancing the understanding about the contributions of these women as well as the general contributions of women in the arts. No similar books offer case studies on women leaders across different professions with this focus. Hopefully, more such accessible tomes will follow."
