"Founded in 2014 as a tongue-in-cheek alternative to the esteemed Whitney Biennial, the Every Woman Biennial has evolved into an intergenerational showcase that mixes emerging talent with established feminist art stars while maintaining the scrappy, activist energy that inspired it in the first place."
"As speakers at the Making Their Mark Forum stressed, it isn't enough to recognize the role of women in the art historical canon. We need to be promoting women and nonbinary artists working today, and creating new paths in a system that is not designed for them."
"During the opening, drinks were flowing and the energy was high, with offbeat performances taking place throughout the evening against a backdrop that included works by Swoon, Mickalene Thomas, Michele Pred, and Patricia Cronin."
The Every Woman Biennial, held in New York, features hundreds of works by women and nonbinary artists, attracting large crowds. Founded in 2014 as a response to gender imbalance in the art world, it combines emerging talent with established feminist artists. The event emphasizes the ongoing need to promote women and nonbinary artists today, as highlighted during the Making Their Mark Forum. The opening featured vibrant performances and notable artworks, reinforcing the biennial's activist spirit and commitment to gender equity in the arts.
