CYCLE OF MUJERES, ART AND HISTORY. “THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THERE: GENDER EQUALITY AND WOMEN ARTISTS IN THE VISUAL ARTS.” SEMÍRAMIS GONZALES
In this talk we will take a look at the relevance that women artists have had for decades, and how they have developed their work despite the continuous silencing they faced. Spanish and international artists who broke molds and made female problems visible through their creative works. Because they have always been there, even though they tried to hide them.
