Mary D Garrard
MARY D. GARRARD is an art historian whose work has combined Italian Renaissance art with feminist studies. Her 1989 book, Artemisia Gentileschi: The Image of the Female Hero in Italian Baroque Art (1989), widely acknowledged as a groundbreaking contribution to the field, launched modern studies of the now-famous artist. In Artemisia Gentileschi Circa 1622: The Shaping and Reshaping of an Artistic Identity (2001), Garrard addressed new critical issues in Gentileschi studies. Her latest book on the artist is Artemisia Gentileschi and Feminism in Early Modern Europe (Reaktion Books, March 2020).In Brunelleschi’s Egg: Gender, Art, and Nature in Renaissance Italy (University of California Press, 2010), Garrard examines the changing relationship of art and nature in the Renaissance, and shows how they were cast by artists and theorists as gendered competitors. With Norma Broude, Garrard created and edited three books that have become basic texts in art history and women’s studies courses: Feminism and Art History: Questioning the Litany (1982)
