Recognizing the aesthetic and intellectual impact of women on the visual arts and culture


The Feminist Art Project is an international collaborative initiative celebrating the Feminist Art Movement and the aesthetic, intellectual and political  impact of women on the visual arts, art history, and art practice, past and present. The project is a strategic intervention against the ongoing erasure of women from the cultural record. It promotes diverse feminist art events, education and publications through its website and online calendar and facilitates networking and regional program development worldwide.
