Women’s Art

VoCA is a big champion of art made by women, that style of post-feminist work that is ultimately about the experience of being female. Some of our favorite artists are Toronto-based Gunilla Josephson, Pipilotti Rist, Judy Chicago (currently showing in Toronto), Vancouver’s Gathie Falk and many others.

“Taken together, their work argues that women are evolving a language and materiality that is original, oppositional, malleable, and fascinatingly contrasts with work by men.”
