ZOOM-Fierce Females: Women in Art (Part III)

The art world has long overlooked the groundbreaking contributions of countless talented women. This program shines a spotlight on fierce female artists who defied societal norms and pushed the boundaries of creativity, yet remain underappreciated in the annals of art history. The program features a diverse array of artists and media, from the bold expressionist prints of Kathe Kollwitz to ebullient Impressionist paintings by Berthe Morisot. In celebrating these visionary women we help to redefine artistic greatness for future generations.
