Women Only: Works on Paper

Liss Llewellyn have long made it their mission to encourage the reappraisal of some of the less well-known figures of twentieth century art – who more often than not are women. In particular, their publications and exhibitions have brought many women artists more mainstream attention. In this book, which was published to accompany an exhibition of the same name, Liss Llewellyn have drawn together over fifty works on paper from private collections. The selection includes a wide variety of works in a range of styles. The artists Vanessa Bell, Hilda Carline, Ithell Colquhoun, Winifred Knights and Paule Vézelay are all represented, as well as other accomplished but less well-known artists.

The exhibition WOW was shown concurrently with the exhibition Challenging Convention, which focused on the work of Laura Knight, Gwen John, Vanessa Bell and Dod Procter.
