Viewing The Power of She

Bowman Sculpture and Guerin Projects present ‘The Power of She: A Tribute to Women in the Arts,’ curated by Marie-Claudine Llamas and Mica Bowman. Held in London’s St James’s district, the exhibition features 14 artists and celebrates the overlooked history of female artists, and explores themes of women’s roles, nature, and the human condition. By showcasing works from the 18th century to the present, ‘The Power of She’ challenges the male-dominated art world and provides a platform for women artists to shine. 

Renowned sculptors like Camille Claudel and contemporary artists, including Emily Young, are featured. The exhibition goes beyond artworks, offering performances, talks, and discussions to amplify women’s voices and address gender inequality. It is a powerful statement about the enduring significance of art in breaking down societal barriers and recognising women’s contributions. ‘The Power of She’ honours the creativity and spirit of women artists, past and present, as it calls for greater representation and appreciation in the arts. Alongside the exhibition runs a six-week programme of events, including a performance by Natascha Mair, Prima Ballerina of the English National Ballet, female musicians and DJs and talks from several participating artists.
