A catalogue review of women artists arranged by historical period from the 1930s to the 1990s, and according to the artists' visibility i.e. the famous are discussed alongside the relatively unknown or "invisible." It may sound highly conceptual in structure (not surprisingly since its publication coincided with the exhibition opening at Boston's ultra non-traditional Institute of Contemporary Art), but the work itself as represented by color and black and white photographs, and the five general essays accompanying them, are exciting, alive, and full of a political drama that makes these artists the voices of modernity whether anyone has bothered to listen or not.
