Reframing Women Printmakers

P.L. Henderson was born in the North of England and now lives in Lisbon, Portugal. She is an art historian and freelance writer who regularly contributes to publications on art, ecological issues and wider culture. Her research into the subject of women artists led to her creation and curation of the successful and ongoing social media project: @womensart1 (X, formerly twitter) and WOMENSART blog to platform the work of women artists.Whilst having a case study published in the book Feminism and Museums, Intervention, Disruption and Change (2017), she was also one of the writing team for Phaidon's book Great Women Artists (2019) and also Great Women Painters (2022). She has also written her own successful books about art: Unravelling Women's Art; Creators, Rebels & Innovators in Textile Arts (Aurora Metro/Supernova Books 2020) and Unlocking Women's Art: Pioneers, Visionaries & Radicals of Paint (Aurora Metro/Supernova Books 2023).www.womensartblog.wordpress.com.

"Reframing Women offers a powerful and much-needed reexamination of the role of women in printmaking, challenging long-held assumptions about artistic authorship and gender. Through a combination of historical analysis, striking visual examples and interviews with practicing artists, the book sheds light on often-overlooked female artists whose contributions have been marginalized in mainstream art history. The writing is thoughtful and well-researched, offering both scholarly insight and accessible narrative, as well as a broad look through time and cultures. This is an essential read for anyone interested in feminist art history, print culture, or the broader redefinition of women’s roles in the creative industries." *****– Daisy Campbell, Netgalley reviewer“P. L. Henderson works tirelessly to bring the work of global women artists to a wider audience..." – Jackie Morris, award-winning illustrator and writer“P.L Henderson’s writing is essential and key to the always unfolding story of the impact of women on art. And of art on women .” – Bonnie Greer, novelist, critic and broadcaster"Women artists have long been undervalued and cast aside by our historically male-dominated culture...Art historian PL Henderson has dedicated her career to rewriting this narrative" – Charlotte Beach, PRINT Magazine
