On the occasion of painter Monika Baer being awarded the Hannah-Höch Prize comes the publication of the first German edition of the essay "Modernity and the Spaces of Feminity" (1988) by Griselda Pollock, a pioneer of feminist art history and theory. Through a critical engagement with the artistic praxis of women who were part of the Impressionist movement, Pollock's essay forms a brilliant analysis of class and gender relations at the end of the 19th century, which continues to resonate to this day. "Moderne und die Räume der Weiblichkeit" was carefully revised and comprehensively annotated by Griselda Pollock for this publication, and a new introduction was added, giving an insight into the genesis of the essay and its historical context within the academic milieu. The text is additionally augmented by illustrations that were not published in the English original, visually expanding the author's argument and making it comprehensible on a broader scale. Furthermore, an updated bibliography, a detailed index of people and subjects as well as informative biographical data on Griselda Pollock's career and areas of research are provided in this German edition.
