THE 31 WOMEN COLLECTION

In 1943, Peggy Guggenheim created a first of its kind art exhibition while in exile during WW2. With little recognition, The Exhibition By 31 Women was the first documented all female exhibition in the United States that brought together 31 artists. Some were established while others were names that had not, and have not, yet emerged from obscurity.

The 31 Women Collection works to sharpie this historic event and these incredible artists into history. Today, over 150 works of fine art and 50+ pieces of ephemera of the 31 Women artists have been collected. In May 2023 a week long exhibition was presented to celebrate the 80th anniversary. One piece from each of the artists was brought to the original location of the 1943 exhibition to be presented to the public!

Next up, a portion of the collection will be embarking on a journey to Madrid, Spain, where it will be on display at Fundaćion MAPFRE September 14, 2024 -January 5, 2025!
