HIS BIBLIOGRAPHICAL extravaganza is an offshoot of the even more massive list I compiled while researching my (as yet unpublished) book Women Looking at Men. It includes books, articles, exhibition catalogs, and the like and covers a broad range of periods, countries, and media. I hope that it will prove useful to both students and art historians, but keep in mind that this is a very eclectic list stemming from a particular project and may or may not include the artist or topic you seek. There is almost nothing on strictly abstract art, although there is a lot on Surrealism. Likewise, it covers some of the big names, omits many others, and should surprise you with its sources on some relatively obscure artists. It has nothing written after about 1995. Those caveats aside, it lists a huge amount of material in what I hope are reasonable categories.
  The list includes sources in German, French, Italian, Czech, Swedish, Spanish, Dutch, and Russian, and also (if memory serves me) in Danish, Finnish, and Hungarian. If you haven’t yet used foreign-language sources, fear not: often there will be an English summary at the end. If you know French or Spanish, you can probably figure out an article in Italian, and if you know German, Dutch and the Scandinavian languages are pretty manageable. Besides, sometimes foreign magazines have reproductions of works you haven’t seen elsewhere. It’s all part of the thrill of the chase. 
 

This bibliography represents many hours of work and is ©Karla Huebner. You may print it out for use in research and teaching, but please include proper attribution if you give copies to students or colleagues. Also, I’d love to hear from you— e-mail me describing your class and/or research (but please don’t be offended if I don’t get back to you right away).

You can order copies of some of these books via my online bookstore.
