"The most signal omission of feminist art history to date is our failure to analyse why modern art history ignores the existence of women artists. Why it has become silent about them, why it has consistently dismissed as insignificant those it did acknowledge. To confront these questions enables us to identify the unacknowledged ideology with informs the practice of this discipline and the values which decided its classification and interpretations of all art."
Griselda Pollock and Roszika Parker, "Critical Stereotypes: The essential femininity or how essential is femininity" Old Mistresses, Women, Art and Ideology, 1981
