Fierce Females in Art
Wednesday March 25
7 – 8:30 PM
Women have long been the subject of art, often depicted as nothing more than objects of desire. How do images of women change when women become the creators? This talk by Art History instructor Jane Oneail will examine the history of women in art in brief and then explore the lives, careers and works of several major women artists from the Renaissance to the twentieth century, including Artemisia Gentileschi and Mary Cassatt.
Free. Open to all. No registration necessary.
Jane Oneail curates and delivers art programs to audiences throughout New England.
Jane holds a master’s in Art History from Boston University and a master’s in Education from Harvard University. She has taught Art History at the college level for a decade and has worked at several New England museums including the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and the Currier Museum of Art. She is the founder and president of Culturally Curious, whose mission is to engage, educate and unify groups through facilitated arts experiences that inspire joy and foster critical and creative thinking, as well as an appreciation for our shared humanity.
