Issued in conjunction with a 2001 exhibition featuring these drawings and paintings by Russian women artists. With essays by Stanley Rabinowitz, Jill Meredith, and Sonya Bekkerman, and 48 main examples of the artwork. Contents as follows: About the collector, Thomas P. Whitney '37 / Stanley Rabonwitz -- "Believe in yourself more, in your strengths and rights" : the feminist polemic of the Russian avant-garde / Jill Meredith -- Apocalyptic visions : the war prints of Natalia Goncharova and Olga Rozanova / Sonya Bekkerman -- Exhibition checklist. PLEASE NOTE: This book, published by the Mead Art Museum,has the SAME ISBN as another book, titled "Ora White Hitchcock: An Amherst Woman of Art and Science." This is because the museum uised the same ISBN for two of it's publications. Various websites, when listing either of these books, will combine the descriptions of both books which are found in mammoth online ISBN databases, and itis not the fault of the individual booksellers.
