A Woman's Touch: The National Museum of Women in the Arts
A Woman's Touch: The National Museum of Women in the Arts - The National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington D.C. offers the single most important collection of art by women in the world.
The museum provides an astonishing survey of women artists representing every major artistic period from 16th-century Dutch and Flemish still lifes to 20th-century abstract expressionism to postmodern art. This GREAT MUSEUMS special reflects on everything from how women artists have been overshadowed in art history to feminism and the French Revolution to the memorable feminine artistic expressions of the late 19th century.
The good news is that due to shining stars like the National Museum of Women in the Arts women artists in the 20th century are anonymous no more! The program integrates themes of history and diversity with art the great common denominator.
