I am always facilitating with the Guerrilla Girls, the have a great take on how to bring light to women and women of colour not getting the recognition they deserve.

A very good book with great pictures about an important subject of female equality. Easily written and explained with lots of pictures. We need more of this in life!

The Guerrilla Girls have been around what seems like forever, yet their message is still relevant and current. How disheartening. "Guerrilla Girls: The Art of Behaving Badly" is a great visual book follows the Guerrilla Girls throughout time and around the world and drive the point across.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I read this book entirely in one sitting, it was unputdownable. As an art teacher (K-5) and a former BA student in Drawing and Painting, the Guerrilla Girls movement means so much to me. The movement is one of my favorites in art history and contemporary art. This comprehensive book about the history of the movement, paired with gorgeous photographs of the work of the Guerrilla Girls will be a huge educational aid for me as a teacher. Once this book comes out, I will need tog et a copy to keep in my classroom library for when I teach my students about equality in art.
