Steedman, M (2017) Representation of Female Artists in Britain in 2017. At: https://www.freelandsfoundations.co.uk/documents/Representation-of-female-artists-research-2018.pdf (accessed on 11th of September 2019).
This is a lengthy and comprehensive guide into the representation of female artists in the UK in 2017. Marijke Steedman brings in a lot statistics which have been useful to my work. It just took along time to get through and a lot wasn’t relevant to my research.
Overall the report shows improvements from the previous years study. But also brings to note the areas which have worsened. For example there was an decrease in the number of solo shows by women. The number of women studying art is high, however “women are striving for achievement but this is not currently reflected in the number of artists represented”.
Steedman draws the figure of pay together and concludes that women are in general lower paid. The number solo shows by women at non-commercial galleries is around 22%, which has decreased. Yet the number outside London has increased.
