SUMMARY:Making Her Mark: A Celebration of Women in Art
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 16 January – Sunday 13 June 2027 | Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum\nMaking Her Mark explores the role, impact and legacy of women in art.\nWomen have made huge impacts on the development of British art. However, they have often been underrepresented, overlooked and undervalued in their fields.\nCelebrating notable female artists from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day, see extraordinary works by Elizabeth Forbes, Laura Knight, Dod Procter, Caroline Walker, Tracey Emin and Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, amongst many more in the exhibition here in Worcester.\nOver the years, women artists have had to navigate the impact of lack of access to art academies and societies, along with the struggle for recognition and representation. The exhibition also explores the significance of the self-portrait for these artists, as well as the power to be found in collaboration.\nThis exciting new exhibition is formed through a unique collaboration between Penlee House Gallery & Museum ( https://penleehouse.org.uk/exhibition/making-her-mark-a-celebration-of-women-in-art/ ), Worcester City Art Gallery & Museum and Kirkcaldy Galleries ( https://www.onfife.com/venues/kirkcaldy-galleries/ ), part of cultural charity OnFife, bringing together over 50 works by women artists from their respective collections.\nThe exhibition is part of Going Places, an Art Fund ( https://www.artfund.org/ ) programme made possible with major support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund ( https://www.heritagefund.org.uk/ ) and the Julia Rausing Trust ( https://www.juliarausingtrust.org/ ).\nTickets are required for this exhibition; further information will be available soon.\n\nGoing Places | Young People’s Artworks\nWorcester City Art Gallery and Museum worked with care-experienced young people through the Youth Voice Team, Worcestershire’s organisation that empowers young people to influence local decisions and ensure their voices are heard.\nSupported by artist Nicola Prestage, the young people were guided through the exhibition artworks, reflecting on what they meant to them. Each chose an artwork to inspire their response. Then through a variety of media, including painting and film, they created powerful art that grew from personal experience. View their artworks here.
