Does gender bias impact recognition in the arts?
Let’s challenge ourselves: name five great artists. How many are women? If you thought of more women than men, you’re ahead of the curve. In this edition, we explore the underrepresentation of female creatives in the art world. Despite more women graduating from art colleges, systemic biases still hinder their recognition and opportunities.
We had the privilege to interview nine talented female artists from around the world, showcasing their unique perspectives and contributions. This issue features both renowned and emerging international voices.
What makes a creative successful—potential, hard work, or dedication? We invite you to reflect on this important question with us!
Even though the art scene focuses on and criticises inequalities in our society, artists are still tied to an industry that is market-driven, eurocentric and overwhelmingly unequal.
Arbitrary privileges such as being well connected or having sufficient funding can be much more decisive in the success of an artist than their actual potential.
Our aim as a/part curations is to give creatives from all around the world a space to present their work and share their stories, regardless of their success.
In our Magazine we try to not only feature already well-known artists but a variety of different creatives with great potential and interesting personalities as well as various art forms. Apart from the interviews with our creatives and their artwork, you will also find articles, spaces and events for creatives and much more.
Come and have a read with us.
For a limited time, you can get both the first and second editions of a/part Magazine at a special price.
