The event is now concluded and the RSVPs are now closed at this time.
Featuring over 300 beautiful full-color illustrations and photographs, The Story of Art Without Men spans six centuries to illuminate the works of extraordinary artists and female virtuosi, such as Plautilla Nelli, Augusta Savage, and Marina Abramovic. London native Katy Hessel expounds upon the themes expressed on her Instagram and podcast, @thegreatwomenartists, across every medium to prove how many extraordinary women and gender nonconforming artists have been overlooked throughout history and directly challenges the idea that “great men” created Western art history.
Sunday Times bestseller in the United Kingdom, The Story of Art Without Men is published with W.W. Norton and will be Hessel’s first time partnering with David Zwirner Books on her US book tour. This book is an essential addition for every aspiring art historian interested in correcting previous notions of the canon.
The Story of Art Without Men will be available for purchase at the David Zwirner Bookstore during the book signing.
