On a long purple prominent wall on the fourth floor of the Pompidou Centre is an amusing but pointed commentary about female artists in the male-dominated art world. It’s a sculpture by Agnes Thurnaeur of large colored buttons femalizing the names of important male artists with the exception of Louis Bourgeois instead of Louise Bourgeois. The piece is part of a new exhibit called elles @centre pompidou, the first time in the world a major museum has had an exhibit with only female artists from the 20th century until present. Over 500 works by 200 artists create an ambitious show. It’s in chronological order divided into seven categories: Pioneer, Free Fire, Body slogan, The Activist Body, A Room of Ones Own, Woodworks and Immaterials. Artists include Niki de Saint Phalle, Annette Messenger, Frida Kahlo, Diane Arbus, Sophie Calle, Louis bourgeois, Agnes Martin and Joan Mitchell.
