This handsome book presents a major reassessment of Gluck'slife and work, examining, among other things, the artist'snumerous personal relationships and contemporary notions of gender and social history. Gluck'spaintings comprise a full range of artistic genres--still life, landscape, portraiture--as well as images of popular entertainers. Financially independent and somewhat freed from social convention, Gluck highlighted her sexual identity, cutting her hair short and dressing as a man, and the artistis known for a powerful series of self-portraits that played with conventions of masculinity and femininity. Richly illustrated, this volume is a timely and significant contribution to gender studies and to the understanding of a complex and important modern painter.<BR />"-- Gluck : A Life in Art / Gill Clarke -- You/We / Diana Souhami -- Souvenirs of Gluck : A Collection of the Mundane? / Martin Pel -- The Individualist Artist : Gluck and Modern British Art / Simon Martin -- Exhibiting Gluck : Gluck and The Fine Art Society / Andrew McIntosh Patrick and Amy de la Haye -- Dressing the Part : The Artist Gluck and Masculine Dress / Elizabeth Wilson -- Absent Dress : A Dress Historical Analysis of Gluck's Adult Dressed Appearances / Amy de la Haye -- Exhibiting a Life : Gluck, Dressed Appearance and the Biographic Object / Jeffrey Horsley |
