María Berrío, Caroline Walker, Flora Yukhnovich
Victoria Miro in association with The Great Women Artists presents a summer exhibition featuring three young artists who rethink traditional genres to touch upon themes of migration, the workplace, and the gendered language of painting. Founded by Katy Hessel in 2015 @thegreatwomenartists is an influential Instagram account that celebrates female artists, ranging from recent graduates to Old Masters, on a daily basis.
A series of talks and events will take place during the exhibition. These informal tours are free to attend and will last around 30 minutes. No booking necessary.
