Five Major Museums Unveil Audio Guides Celebrating Lesser-Known Women Artists
The project—titled Museums Without Men—debuted in the U.S. and the U.K. during Women’s History Month. In honor of Women’s History Month, five museums in the United States and the United Kingdom are debuting curated audio guides dedicated to the work of women and gender nonconforming artists.
The project, titled Museums Without Men, is the brainchild of Katy Hessel, an art historian and author of 2022’s The Story of Art Without Men.
Participating institutions include the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco in California, the Smithsonian’s Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., the Hepworth Wakefield in northern England and Tate Britain in London.
