The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw are opening a new exhibition today entitled The Woman Question 1550-2025.

According to their website:

Organized by curator and art historian Alison M. Gingeras, this exhibition challenges the notion that women were largely absent from art before the late 1800s. The nine-part visual narrative is a testament to the enduring and dynamic creativity of women artists over the last 500 years. The result is a collection of nearly 200 works, including paintings by Renaissance, Baroque and 19th-century women artists through more contemporary works, offering a centuries-long visual history of women’s “emancipation.”

The show will run until 3rd May 2026.
