Written in honor of Alicia Craig Faxon, Ph.D., whose career as a scholar, professor, art critic and patron of the arts has contributed so much to the fields of art history and art criticism, this collection represents original research on a range of subjects from baroque to contemporary art. Many of the essays open new avenues through their interdisciplinary approach. Lavishly illustrated with many images that have not previously appeared in print, Breaking New Ground offers a wide range of recent scholarship that will be of interest not only to artists and art historians, but also to scholars and students of women's and gender studies and literature.
