Lady Lever exhibit
A NEW exhibition showcasing 40 pieces of women’s artwork dating from the early 1800s to the 1980s is on view at the Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight until August 18.
Another View: Landscapes by Women Artists looks at how artists have used their practice to explore the issues of their day, asking questions about class, gender, politics, and more through their depictions of landscape.
In concentrating on work by women, the exhibition examines the term "lady amateur," which was often used in contrast to the "professional" artist title usually reserved for males, before exploring how women pushed for greater recognition as artists, particularly in the 19th century.
Entry to the exhibition is free. For more details go to liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/anotherview.
