We are taking this moment to reflect on one key area of our history and review one hundred and twenty-five years of exhibiting women artists. This continues the spirit of our Modern Masters series and allows us to celebrate the pioneering, persistent, creative women artists at the end of the 19th century, and all the curators, gallerists and individual talents who have contributed to the equality enjoyed today in the cultural realm.
