Visualizing the Numbers: See Infographics Tracing the Representation of Women Artists in Museums and the Market

We examined the evolving representation of work by female
artists in American museums and the global auction market over the
past decade. To do that, we gathered information on acquisitions
and exhibitions at 26 American museums from 2008 to 2018, as well
as global auction data. Below are visualizations of our research
and findings.

This story is part of a
research project on the presence of work by female artists in
museums and the market over the past decade. For more, see
our examination of women in
museums; our examination of the women in the
market; four case studies on
museums making change; our investigation into maternity
leave in the art world; art-world reactions to
the data; and our
methodology.
