Some incredible links here - thank you. Definitely going to look at the gallery recommendations and the Maggie O’Farrell especially caught my eye. I’m curious to know if any of the female artists you’ve come across talk about female stoicism at all, because it is a subject I’m trying to see if we have anything on an so can’t believe there’s no evidence of it anywhere
Thank you for your newsletters - so much great women's art to see and learn about! Wondering - albeit from afar - about your portrayal of the protests that followed the Supreme Court ruling on the definition of sex in the Equality Act as "peaceful and full of love". Perhaps that's not all they were? Hannah Barnes wrote about: " ...the threats made to women during the trans rights activist protests that followed the judgement, at which some carried placards bearing abusive messages, including “The only good Terf is a [dead] one” and “Bring back witch burning”.
OMG! Ms Hessel, I enjoy your newsletters, but this is the second time since I have been a subscriber that you list Dublin (in this case IMMA) as a place to see exhibitions in the UK. Er, don't you know that Ireland is not part of the UK? It gained independence over a hundred years ago. I'm really getting disgusted by this ignorance, as will any other Irish reader.
