Western art, to many people, recalls Frederic Remingtons and Charles M. Russells evocative (indeed mythmaking) scenes of cowboys and American Indians. Shift the focus to women artists, and perhaps only Georgia OKeeffe comes into view, with her luminous New Mexico landscapes. But these popular portrayers are only a few of the many artists who have created lasting images of the West.This encyclopedia is a biographical dictionary of some 1,000 women artists of the American West. The product of a twentyyear, coasttocoast research project by authors Phil Kovinick and Marian YoshikiKovinick, it offers accurate, concise introductions to women painters, graphic artists, and sculptors, all of whom achieved recognition as depictors of Western subjects between the 1840s and 1980. Their styles range from representationalism to early modernism, while their works depict everything from bold landscapes and scenes of intensive action to studies of Native Americans, pioneers, ranchers, farmers, wildlife, and flora.Each entry in the encyclopedia features the salient facts of the artists life and career, with attention to her work with Western subject matter. Many of the entries also contain a selected list of the artists exhibitions, current locations of her work in public collections, pertinent references, and a blackandwhite example of her work. An overview of the history of women in western art complements the biographical entries.

This encyclopedia is a fantastic resource! It really showcases the contributions of women artists in the American West, which I didn’t know much about before. The writing is engaging and the illustrations are beautiful; I found myself lost in it for hours. Definitely a must-have for anyone interested in art history.

Disappointing Quality
I was really looking forward to this book, but it arrived with several pages creased. The content is interesting, but the damage really affected my reading experience. I expected better quality for the price.
