Join us for The Women's Art Collection: Artworks and Artists in Context, a prestigious academic conference held at Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge. This one-day event brings together esteemed academics, researchers, artists, curators, and writers to delve into the rich history of The Women's Art Collection. With over 600 modern and contemporary works by women artists, including renowned figures such as Mary Kelly, Maggi Hambling, and Lubaina Himid, this collection stands as the largest of its kind in Europe. The conference aims to deepen our understanding of the artists, artworks, and themes represented in this remarkable collection.

The Women's Art Collection serves as a significant resource for examining the underrepresentation of women artists in public collections. Scholars have long explored the historical marginalization of women artists in relation to their male counterparts, as well as the complexities surrounding the "woman artist" label and the perpetuation of a male-centric art history. The acquisition of Mary Kelly's Extase in 1986 sparked the creation of the collection, with academics and staff at the College reaching out to living women artists in the UK, inviting them to donate works that could inspire future generations.

In 2018, The Women's Art Collection was accredited by Arts Council England, solidifying its status as a prominent museum. The conference ticket includes lunch, a drinks reception, and refreshments throughout the day. Additionally, attendees have the option to book a formal dinner at Murray Edwards College for an additional fee. We invite you to immerse yourself in the wealth of knowledge and inspiration that The Women's Art Collection has to offer. Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights into the art world and support the recognition of women artists.

This photo was taken at night, so the clock is a little unclear. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, I still feel a little nervous. After all, no one can control time.
