Artists’ Choice: Recognizing Women Artists

In honor of Women’s History Month, Artsy is celebrating female-identifying and non-binary artists who deserve greater recognition. Artsy Editorial spoke with some of the world’s leading women artists, including Anicka Yi, Arlene Shechet, Diana Al-Hadid, Laurie Simmons, Lynn Hershman Leeson, Rachel Rose, Senga Nengudi, Shirin Neshat, and Tara Donovan, and asked them to share the names of the rising women artists who inspire them. Below, discover works by the emerging and underrepresented artists they chose, as well as others selected by Artsy’s curatorial team, including Clare Tabouret, Deana Lawson, Jesse Mockrin, and Tschabalala Self.
