In recent years, major museums and galleries have shed light on underrecognized female artists like Carmen Herrera and Carol Rama, as well as presenting group shows celebrating the feminist art of the 1970s. Yet despite this increasing exposure, inequality persists. Artists represented by the top galleries across New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago are still roughly 70 percent male, according to artist Micol Hebron’s ongoing “Gallery Tally” project.
In the second installment of the series, painter and photographer Marilyn Minter, filmmaker and writer Miranda July, art advisor Todd Levin, and gallerist Rachel Uffner discuss the gender gap today, and what can be done to level the playing field for women—since, as Minter notes, “Art isn’t gendered. It’s whether you have a vision or not.”
