The Problem of the Overlooked Female Artist: An Argument for Enlivening a Stale Model of Discussion

 

Maria Lassnig, “Du oder Ich” (2005), oil on canvas, 203,5 x 155,5 cm (photo courtesy Maria Lassnig Foundation)

Very recently I was told that a certain art magazine editor, who had deleted the feminist critique from a review I had written, “can only take so much feminism.”

Forfeit use of the word, “alleged”. The practice and pattern of allowing for one woman artist at a time to occupy the space for greatness still reserved for men is by now legend. Time to put aside fears and lift up all of the greats for all to see.  – word pond
