Katy Hessel on Women in the History of Art | Jaipur Bytes 2025

Which kinds of art are worth viewing, and who creates them?

Katy Hessel unpacks these questions by examining limitations historically placed on art made by women and types of works currently exhibited in the UK. The art historian argues how recognising these artists and writers’ achievements not only enriches our understanding of art history but also shapes a more inclusive future for the art world.
