Women at Auction will see Katy Hessel, Art historian, Curator and Founder of @thegreatwomenartists (Instagram), discuss women artists from the Renaissance to the present day who have been sold at auction houses all around the world. Starting with the Old Masters – whose prices she will look at then and now – Katy will analyse trends and markets for women throughout time, ending with some of the biggest names in contemporary art known today. She will place particular emphasis on the past twenty years and chart the rise in the female art market that is becoming an ever increasingly popular subject.
