Women artists have been involved in making art in most times and places. Often certain media are associated with women, particularly textile arts;
however, these gender roles in art change in different cultures and
communities. Many art forms dominated by women have been historically
dismissed from the art historical canon as craft, as opposed to fine art.[1]
Women artists faced challenges due to gender biases in the mainstream fine art world.[1] They have often encountered difficulties in training, traveling and trading their work, and gaining recognition.
Beginning in the late 1960s and 1970s, feminist artists and art historians created a Feminist art movement, that overtly addresses the role of women in the art world and explores women in art history.[1]
