WOMEN ARTISTS OF THE DMV: A 18+ gallery survey of contemporary female artists working across the Greater Capital Region.
About the exhibitions: Seventeen somewhat concurrent exhibitions featuring the work of nearly 500 women artists from the Greater Washington, DC capital region. This massive survey exhibition is curated by Florencio Lennox Campello, whose curatorial background extends to over 200 fine arts shows over the past four decades. “This region is not only home to some of the best art museums in the world, dozens of commercial art galleries, non-profit art spaces, alternative art venues, embassy art spaces, and fine arts organizations, but it also supports and fertilizes some of the most unique and creative visual art scenes in the nation,” notes Campello.
Why this show? To survey the key, established female artists of the capital region, mid-career female artists, and just as important, identify the emerging female artists who can benefit from this large-scale exposure. All genres of the visual arts, to include public art, will be showcased and each selected artist is represented by one work selected by the curator.
This multi-space exhibition is the largest ever, curated fine arts show in the United States! Click on the below links for more information on each venue.
