Through its detailed examination of the lives and careers of six female artists-Guan Zilan, Qiu Ti, Pan Yuliang, Fang Junbi, Yu Feng, and Liang Baibo-this book argues that women were central to the emergence of modernist art in early twentieth-century China and to the nation's larger modernization project. Amanda S. Wangwright's analysis of a wealth of primary sources demonstrates how these women constructed public personas, negotiated space within art societies, applied feminist thought to their artistic praxis, and surmounted obstacles to their careers-wielding art as the "golden key" to professional advancement and gender equality.Modern Asian art and visual culture ;Volume 7.Gender identity in artChinaSocial conditions1912-1949ChinafastBiographies.fastCriticism, interpretation, etc.fastHistory.fastGender identity in art.700.4521Wangwright Amanda1492441MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910794508903321The golden key3714966UNINA
