Description:
"A colleciton of essays addressing the artistic practices of women who were involved in a wide range of decorative work as part of their ongoing interest in craft production, fashion and interior design ... Given the repression of decorative work within modernism, the book consider how notions of the decorative have functioned as a repressed and feminised other in turn of the century avant garde discourse"--Dustjacket.
