Anne O’Hehir on Queer women artists in the Collection Study Room
Women artists in focus
Listen to Anne O’Hehir (Curator, Photography) in the Collection Study Room for a close look at Queer women’s photography in the national collection.
In this behind-the-scenes Art Talk, O’Hehir discusses works by Modernist women in the collection who were working in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s and were considered radical in both their photography and their lives.
This talk highlights works by Florence Henri, Gisèle Freund, Berenice Abbott and Claude Cahun that are not currently on display the Gallery.
Art Talks are a free weekly program. Hear from artists, curators and experts on the works in our collection and exhibition program. Art Talks in March focus on women artists in celebration of International Women’s Day.
