Brooklyn Museum & Brooklyn Public Library Art Exhibition Series
Learn about works of art in the Brooklyn Museum’s collection that explore the role of women and the art created by women. Who gets attention in the history of art? What subject matters have appealed to artists? Explore portraiture by women and African American artists in a variety of media, from photography to sculpture. Examine objects for different cultures that help us understand an artist’s struggle for recognition, use of their materials and the museum’s challenges to display them. How do artists make money? Explore the ways different artists have manifested spirituality and religious beliefs through art. Explore the relationship between people and their changing climate through an examination of art and objects from across time and place.
