Art Monsters: Unruly Bodies in Feminist Art by Lauren Elkin

4.0

Well-written, well-organized, and a well-curated set of artworks (at least from my very non-familiar-with-the-subject-matter-POV). Reading this book after taking a feminist art history class was a good move, several of the artists/pieces I'd heard of which was a good segue into those I didn't. I feel like the writing got a little pretentious/New-Yorker-esque at some points (not a surprise considering that the author has written for the New Yorker).
