Purpose and Femininity : A 5 page
paper discussing man’s "oppression" of women based on examples given in
three feminist articles. One of those articles describes Georgia O’Keeffe’s
disdain of the men who fail to see her paintings of flowers as she sees them. In

ability to cause her audience to see her flowers from her point of view. The paper labels
that failure as lying with the artist, rather than with the audience, and extrapolates
O’Keeffe’s experience to corporate America, where the failure of some women to
rise to senior management levels is blamed on the glass ceiling, rather than the inherent
abilities of the women that have been passed over. Sympathy exists, but only where it is
deserved. Bibliography lists 3 sources. Purpfem.wps

Women and Art: A History of Women Painters and
Sculptors from the Renaissance to the Twentieth Century by Elsa Honig Fine: Women
have been both the mother and the maiden in the eyes, hearts and art of men. Elsa Fine has
given another perspective to the appreciation of art - that of women as creators and
critics of art. Women are able to use their ability to create as a means to express their
inner desires and beliefs, to connect to themselves in times when a female identity had to
be hidden beneath a charade of demur behavior and extravagant fashion. This 10 page paper
examines women and art from the perspective presented by Ms. Fine. Bibliography lists 9

and to ultimately result in more women pursuing science as a career. Bibliography lists 10
