This month, Grove Art Online was updated to enlarge the broad coverage of women in Grove Art Online by adding nearly 120 new articles and essays on women artists and designers, and over 120 new images of works by women, to include over 850 women artists. New entries include Kara Walker, Shahzia Sikander, Hildegard of Bingen, Valie Export, Guerrilla Girls, Destiny Deacon, Sheila de Bretteville, Paula Scher and more.
This month, we are also celebrating The Dictionary of Art's 10th anniversary. The Dictionary of Art (34 volumes, 1996), created with the participation of over 6,700 scholars, is the foundation of this remarkable online resource. Today nearly 1,000 art historians contribute to Grove Art Online's editorial program. We hope you will continue to find the growing diversity and depth of this resource valuable and enjoyable.
We'd also like to announce the landmark agreement with The Metropolitan Museum of Art for 2,000 images to be included in the Grove Art Online by Summer 2007.
