throughout the year. #fightsilence
The Guerrilla Girls, “conscience of the art world,” are a group of feminist
visual artists and art professionals committed to exposing the overlooked,
as well as gender unfairness in the art world, since 1985. They wear
gorilla masks in public as the anonymity keeps the focus on the issues,
use facts, fur and humor to expose gender and ethnic bias and have
creatively inspired millions to be themselves, speak up and express their
truths.
Here's a brochure which will be available next week. Not all these works are in the exhibition, only two, but they are all part of the series, Re:Seeding Gaia.
