Throughout Linda Nochlin’s essay “Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?,” the author identifies “social and institutional situations” that have prohibited women artists from being considered great or revolutionary. While these factors—which are both discursive and material—certainly impeded women artists from achieving the levels of success that their male counterparts experienced, it is worth considering whether Nochlin’s claims can be applied universally and in every case. For this short essay, discuss some ways that Mary Cassatt and/or Berthe Morisot effectively challenged or undid the “situations” that Nochlin believes are untouchable.
