Louise Bourgeois, pioneer...
1:08 p.m.Museums, artists, collectors and even government policies are responsible for moving these pieces in the "game" of Art History. Thus, when we explore what has been written in depth, we find mostly male authors and male artists on display. Why? Because they were in a better position to make a career in Art, because their works were preserved and collected over the years with greater care and because History was written precisely by them. Thus, we do not know about women artists because they were not considered and therefore, they were ignored.
Luckily, for the past 10 years changes have been taking place in the institutions and impressive figures who worked in the dark have come to light. Female artists have begun to claim this place they've been deserving forever (since History began to be written). Today art is more fair and women artists have gained space in collections and museums, but how many stories have we missed of those pioneers that we will never see? We would need to rewrite History with all genres represented, and not in newly added separate chapters.
