Description

This book brings to light the historical significance of five women artists - Yoko Ono, Yayoi Kusama, Takako Saito, Mieko Shiomi, and Shigeko Kubota, who were among the first Japanese women to leave their country - and its male-dominated, conservative art world - to explore the artistic possibilities in New York.
