"American Gothic" and the Division of Labor.
Saunders, Robert J.
Art Education, v40 n3 p6-11 May 1987
Provides historical review of gender-based division of labor. Argues that gender-based division of labor served a purpose in survival of tribal communities but has lost meaning today and may be a handicap to full use of human talent and ability in the arts. There is nothing in various art forms which make them more appropriate for males or females. (JDH)
