8 reviews for Guerrilla Girls’ Bedside Companion to the History of Western Art

  1. Kavisha Sharma

    Interesting perspective, but sometimes felt preachy. I appreciated learning about the Guerrilla Girls themselves, though.

  2. Joydeepa Nandy

    Uneven. Some chapters are brilliant, others fall flat. The humor can be hit-or-miss, but overall, it’s a valuable contribution.

  3. Ashish Khatana

    Found it a bit repetitive at times. The stats and facts were powerful, but I wish there was more analysis of specific artworks.

  4. Shreeniket Ashok Hinge

    A must-read for any art student! This book provides a crucial counter-narrative to traditional art history textbooks. So good!

  5. Hansika Jain

    A fun, accessible read! The Guerrilla Girls’ wit shines, but sometimes their arguments felt a little too simplistic. Still, a great intro to feminist art history.

  6. Sankey Jain

    A delightful and informative book! The perfect gift for art lovers and feminists alike. Highly recommend!

  7. Arpit Jain

    Loved the Guerrilla Girls’ in-your-face style! It’s a quick, engaging read that challenges the art historical canon. Highly recommend.

  8. Vivek Gupta

    Eye-opening! I learned so much about overlooked female artists. Some of the stats were depressing, but the book is ultimately empowering.
