How many women artists do you know? Who makes art history? Did
women even work as artists before the twentieth century? And what
is the Baroque anyway? Guided by Katy Hessel, art historian and
founder of @thegreatwomenartists, discover the glittering paintings
by Sofonisba Anguissola of the Renaissance, the radical work of
Harriet Powers in the nineteenth-century United States and the
artist who really invented the “readymade.” Explore the Dutch
Golden Age, the astonishing work of postwar artists in Latin
America, and the women defining art in the 2020s. Have your sense
of art history overturned and your eyes opened to many artforms
often ignored or dismissed. From the Cornish coast to Manhattan,
Nigeria to Japan, this is the history of art as it’s never been
told before.
