Katy Hessel made her name highlighting the grotesque disparity between the representation of men and women in art galleries and fighting to correct it. Through her podcast and Instagram account, The Great Women artists, and now in her magisterial book The Story of Art Without Men. Beginning in the 16th century, Hessel demonstrates time and again how women have been erased from the history of art, and howâtime and againâdespite the restrictions imposed by the constraints of the patriarchy have proven significantly more radical and inventive than their male counterparts.
