When reading " Race and Gender Criticism" there were several key issues that stuck out to me. As I was reading I noticed what I call problems in the art industry, In Western art establishments white males who are in the industry judged female artists those of color included based on their skills and design. Those men also stereotyped female artists originality. I believe artwork in general shouldn't be based on how the painting/sculpture looks but what it portrays and how it makes people feel. Problem number two, one woman of color and three white women out of seventy-one artists were allowed to attend Modern Art in New York. Artists should attend galleries if they don't "qualify" for the shows. Women have been talked about in a negative way for years and I think if a women can accomplish their goals and share their feelings in a positive perspective then they should be valued as something excellent.
1. Is it okay to judge someones artwork when a person didn't take the time out to examine it?
2. Do you believe that women in the art industry should be appreciated for their work?
3.If the tables were turned do you think it's a double standard if men were stereotyped for their work and not women?
