It's a Man's World. But Does it Have to Be? Art Juice - Ep 29

August 6, 2019

This week we’re discussing gender and how it influences the way we work. The high-end art world continues to be dominated by men and yet attend any workshop and most of the artists there will be women. Are female artists victims of a sexist society? Or are we actually holding ourselves back? We discuss how our parents influenced our attitudes, how women’s tendency to care for others can hinder us, and how we might make our way confidently in a man’s world without resorting to mimicking our male colleagues. We also wonder why some men take up two seats on a plane instead of just one! Alice has been taking and collecting selected work from exhibitions You can see three paintings as part of The Annual Exhibition Society of Women Artists at The Mall Galleries Tuesday 24th Sep at 4.00 to Sunday 29th September.
