Feminist Activist Art and Gender Inequality in Museums — 3D Virtual Gallery by Allysonblake Oguimas
This gallery shows gender Inequality in museums and how male artists often get more attention and space than women artists. I selected these works to show this imbalance in a visual way by combining well-known museum pieces, a feminist artwork, and statistics. Together, the images help show how Representation in museums is not equal and is shaped by decisions about what is valued and displayed.
