    “Not obligatory art history! This is a totally enthralling tour of the lives and art of five powerful, influential women who are finally getting (some) of the credit they're due for shaping art as we know it. Featuring: Lee Krasner, Elaine de Kooning, Grace Hartigan, Joan Mitchell, and Helen Frankenthaler.”

    “An amazing recount of five female artists who embodied that world to its fullest extent. Not necessarily the big splashy modern art names like Pollack (though, one of the women did marry him), but also not totally in the shadows. they pushed the modern art boundaries in a way that is completely inspirational at a time where there was so much imagination and creativity to buck the trend. enjoy!”
