It’s said that Canadian artist Mary Pratt once asked, "If women are the muse for men...what is the muse for women?"
In this exciting installation of 16 works from the AGO Collection, Renata Azevedo Moreira, AGO Assistant Curator, Canadian Art, suggests a response: the exhibition invites visitors to consider how modern and contemporary women artists have used their intimate knowledge of their own bodies to inform their depictions of the feminine.
