Geometric abstraction emerged around the turn of the last century from an attitude that was permeated by renewal, utopia, and resistance, and that aimed at the unity of art and life. Colorful, geometric, and highly attractive, this comprehensive view of the art produced between 1914 and the 1970s is lavishly illustrated and relates the narrative from a female, global, historical, and contemporary perspective, revealing the dense network between women artists, gallerists, and critics.

Artists include: Anni Albers, Marianne Brandt, Marcelle Cahn, Lygia Clark, Sonia Delaunay, Alexandra Exter, María Freire, Carmen Herrera, Hilma af Klint, Katarzyna Kobro, Judith Lauand, Verena Loewensberg, Vera Molnár, Marlow Moss, Aurélie Nemours, Ljubow Popowa, Lidy Prati, Aen Sauerborn, Loló Soldevilla, Warwara Stepanowa, Gunta Stölzl, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Shizuko Yoshikawa, and others.
