A powerful expressionist drama from the 1920s about the dependent status of women in an increasingly mechanised society; based on the true story of Ruth Snyder. Sophie Treadwell was a campaigning journalist in America between the wars. Among her assignments was the sensational murder involving Snyder; who with her lover; Judd Gray; had murdered her husband and gone to the electric chair. This is a play written in anger. In the dead wasteland of male society - it seems to ask - isnt it necessary for certain women; at least; to resort to murder? - Nicholas Wright With an introduction by Judith E. Barlow. gripping... doesnt loosen its hold on the senses until its shattering climax Independent stingingly fresh and provocative Time Out New York [a work of] rare and disturbing beauty New York Times

I love the selection of artists in the list and the wonderful description of what studio means for these people. We often curious on how artists translate their solitary working space in relation to their practice; and how the work are often shaped by these spaces. Each artist bring his/her philosophy which ultimately show a glimpse on the visual arrangements of the space as well as their attitude and work ethic. I highly recommend this bool for student artist; emerging artist; art teachers and enthusiasts.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
