Mission Statement

The Feminist Art History Conference fosters intersectional and interdisciplinary scholarship on the ways in which gender and sexuality have shaped the visual arts and their study–with a conference program designed to advance new research on topics from the ancient past through the present and across the globe. It provides a forum for participants to examine the roles that art and its agents have played in informing and resisting historical and contemporary inequities. Through this forum, the Conference aims to model a more inclusive art history and scholarly community.

The Feminist Art History Conference was established in 2010 to celebrate and build on the feminist art-historical scholarship and pedagogy of Norma Broude and Mary D. Garrard, Professors Emeriti at ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥. It is sponsored by the Art History Program in the Art Department, College of Arts and Sciences, at ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥, with the generous support of Robin D’Alessandro and Dr. Jane Fortune.
