In the last two exhibitions, about Constructivism and Futurism, at Tate Modern London an important space was given to female artists who took part in this art movements. So, you could appreciate their art works and understand their role and relevance.
This is a significant change in the way to show and talk about Contemporary Art, because you could have a complete overview of the movements and not, as usual, only a report of male artists inputs.
The society is made by women and men; the Art is always an expression of the society; so, if you don’t consider the female contribution, you don’t actually give a exhaustive report of an art movement or period.
I hope that this was the beginning of a different (better) approach to the Art research and to the Art exhibitions, not only in England but in all world countries.
