Avoiding the Male Gaze


I was reading Departures, a magazine for American Airlines. It has an issue devoted to Paris this month, and as I plan on traveling to France and Italy next summer, I was looking it over with more than a curious glance. When I came to the section on "Museums not to miss..." I discovered much to my delight that the George Pompidou Center in Paris was opening a new exhibit in May. It will be all women artists in the permanent collection of this modern art museum and is entitled "Elles @ Centrepompidue". Check out the web site to see who will be on display. I hope to visit it when I go next summer.... too bad it is not closer to home! In any case, I plan to take my daughter and share with her all of the talented women artists that are in residence at the Pompidou Center this summe.
