[no title] 1985 - 1990

Editor: This stark poster, from the Guerrilla Girls, simply lists galleries showing very few women artists. It feels so direct. What’s your take on this piece? Curator: For me, this work spotlights the art world's infrastructure. It's less about individual artworks and more about the galleries, the agents of production and distribution, and their role in shaping what art gets seen and valued. Who controls the means of display? Editor: So, the galleries are key? Curator: Precisely! By naming names, the Guerrilla Girls highlight the system of labor and consumption that sustains artistic hierarchies. The poster itself becomes a tool for disrupting that system. Editor: That's a great point. It reframes the conversation. Curator: It reminds us that art is not just about the finished product, but about the entire network of power and material conditions that bring it into being.
