Author: London, KatrinaTaking as its point of departure the art collection at Kykuit – former home of the Rockefeller family, now a museum – this book asks: if exclusively women-id entifying artists remained in this legendary modernist collection, what would be revealed? Kykuit's holdings include work by Anni Alber, Mary Callery, Grace Hartigan, Louise Nevelson, Lenore Tawney & more. The book augments this group with other artists such as Louise Bourgeois to expand the possibilities of a 'closed' collection.ISBN 9781954947078.
