Curating

A thought-provoking exploration of gender representation, ‘The First 47’ features works by 47 women artists. To date there will have been 47 Presidents in the history of the United States. 47 of these have been men and zero women. This collection inverts these numbers, presenting the work of 47 U.S.-based women artists and zero men. The collection includes some of the most established museum-level artists working in the U.S. today including key works from Judy Chicago, Catherine Opie, Marilyn Minter, Ellen Gallagher, Deborah Roberts, Guerilla Girls and Jenny Holzer.
