| Women's Artistic Heritage Around the World | ||||||
|
Women around the world have adorned, shaped, and chronicled their communities. Embracing both continuity and change, women's art often calls upon exceedingly old artistic customs to help affirm individual identity. These ancient connections join the past to the present providing a visual legacy for future generations. Women have always used art as a means of social, spiritual, political, and personal expression. Today women in every country continue to use art as part of their historical roles as healers and cultural bearers. Focusing on indigenous women's art around the world, Enduring Visions: Women's Artistic Heritage Around the World sheds light on such fascinating traditions as Ndebele wall murals, Iban puas, Hungarian agyvitel, and Taina duhos. |
