Blood Unsimple: The Ties That Bind, in All Their Complexity by Martha Schwendener
From the website: One of the great things about "Family Pictures" is the presence of a large number of female creators, an antidote to the recent spate of gallery and museum shows that have regressed to exhibiting predominantly men. The downside is that women have always been viewed as keepers of hearth and home, even in their art. In the 19th century artists like Mary Cassatt and Berthe Morisot painted their families because they didn't have access to racy cafes, absinthe drinkers and prostitutes. With this in mind, "Family Pictures" is one show in which a few more men and their perspectives would be welcome.
