With unparalleled insight and startling wit, Nochlin laid bare the acceptance of a white male viewpoint in art historical thought as not merely a moral failure, but an intellectual one. Freedom, as she sees it, requires women to risk entirely demolishing the art world\u2019s institutions, and rebuilding them anew \u2013 in other words, to leap into the unknown. In this stand-alone anniversary edition, Nochlin\u2019s essay is published alongside its reappraisal, \u2018Thirty Years After\u2019. Written in an era of thriving feminist theory, as well as queer theory, race and postcolonial studies, \u2018Thirty Years After\u2019 is a striking reflection on the emergence of a whole new canon. With reference to Joan Mitchell, Louise Bourgeois, Cindy Sherman and many more, Nochlin diagnoses the state of women and art with unmatched precision and verve. \u2018Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?\u2019 has become a slogan and rallying cry that resonates across culture and society; Dior even adopted it in their 2018 collections. <\/p>\n
In the 2020s, at a time when \u2018certain patriarchal values are making a comeback\u2019, Nochlin’s message could not be more urgent: as she herself put it in 2015, \u2018there is still a long way to go\u2019.<\/p>\n

Linda Nochlin\u2019s seminal essay on women artists is widely acknowledged as the first real attempt at a feminist history of art. Nochlin refused to handle the question of why there had been no \u2018great women artists\u2019 on its own, corrupted, terms. Instead, she dismantled the very concept of \u2018greatness\u2019, unravelling the basic assumptions that had centred a male-coded \u2018genius\u2019 in the study of art. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":27599,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"afm_hide_title":false,"_afm_post_new_title":"","afm_terms_sep_product_language":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_post_translations":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_product_brand":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_product_type":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_product_visibility":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_product_cat":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_product_tag":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_product_shipping_class":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_pos_product_visibility":", ","afm_terms_sep_product_pa_cindy-sherman-art-bag":", "},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[173,114,95],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-26646","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-3106-anskaffede-boker","7":"product_cat-art-books","8":"product_cat-publications","9":"product_shipping_class-div-product","11":"first","12":"outofstock","13":"taxable","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-simple"},"group_of_quantity":0,"min_quantity":0,"max_quantity":"","exclude_order_quantity_value_rules":"no","exclude_category_quantity_rules":"no","combine_variations":"no","yoast_head":"\n
