If you ask someone to name five artists, they will likely name prominent male artists, but how many people can list five women artists? Throughout March’s Women’s History Month, we will be joining institutions around the world to answer this very question posed by the National Museum of Women in the Arts (NWMA). We will be featuring a woman artist every day this month, and highlighting artists in our current exhibition Half the Picture: A Feminist Look at the Collection which explores a wide range of art-making, focusing on enduring political subjects—encompassing gender, race, and class—that remain relevant today. The show is on view until March 31, 2019.

Together we hope to draw attention to the gender and race imbalance in the art world, inspire conversation and awareness, and hopefully add a few more women to everyone’s lists.

Yolanda Lopez’s art practice grew alongside her activism for the Chicanx student movement, which emerged in the late 1960s, and frequently centers the labor of women. Women’s Work Is Never Done is currently on view in Half the Picture: A Feminist Look at the Collection. In it, Lopez combines a 1965 image of labor leader Dolores Huerta proudly holding a strike poster with a group portrait of anonymous female farm workers dressed in protective gear for the heavy industrial work of a 1995 broccoli harvest. This International Women’s Day we celebrate the intellectual, organizing, and nourishing labor of the women depicted—and the work and lives of all trans and cis women around the world.
