Summary
The Female body in the looking-glass makes a refreshing radical intervention into art theory and cultural studies by offering new theoretical concepts such as 'the mirror' and 'genderland' (inspired by Alice's Adventures in Wonderland) as critical tools with which we can analyse and explain recent developments in women's art.
