Saatchi gallery to host its first all-female art exhibition, by Gabriel Buturka


The Saatchi Gallery was founded in 1985 to provide a platform to bring      contemporary art to as wide an audience as possible and make it accessible. Over the last five years the Saatchi Gallery has hosted 15 out of the 20 most visited exhibitions in London                                                                                                                                  





           The Gallery is set to mark its 30th anniversary this year so the London gallery wants to celebrate by making an all-female art exhibition. The name of the exhibition is Champagne life and it's taken from one of the many works of  Julia Wachtel in which the American artist puts a sky-blue  image of Minnie Mouse alongside a picture of  Kanye West and his wife, Kim Kardashian.

“There are two aspects to my work: one is to considered to be landscape paintings, which are more traditional, and the other is celebrity culture ''she said. “Both of those are taking the media world as source material, rather than the actual virtual world of a real landscape or person.”

 



   

  The Champagne life exhibition opens on January 13 and is focused on 14 emerging female artist like Stephanie Quayle, Virgile Ittah, Sigrid Holmwood and others.

According to recent studies in 2013 in the art galleries only 31% of artworks were made by a women.



Another all-female art show it' s happening at the Rubbel familly collection in Miami, Florida called No Man's Land.
