As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/article\/artsy-editorial-linda-nochlins-students-remember-teacher-revolutionized-art-history\">Linda Nochlin<\/a> writes searingly in her iconic 1971 essay, \u201cWhy Have There Been No Great Women Artists,\u201d \u201cAs we all know, things as they are and as they have been, in the arts as in a hundred other areas, are stultifying, oppressive and discouraging to all those, women among them, who did not have the good fortune to be born white, preferably middle class and, above all, male.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The definitive, if less-acknowledged, role women have played throughout art history has been brought to light in recent major museum surveys, such as Swedish mystic painter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/artist\/hilma-af-klint\">Hilma af Klimt<\/a>\u2019s record-breaking retrospective at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/guggenheim-museum\">Guggenheim New York<\/a> in 2019; American portraitist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/artist\/alice-neel\">Alice Neel<\/a>\u2019s 2021 survey at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/the-metropolitan-museum-of-art\">Metropolitan Museum of Art<\/a>; and the inclusion of the phenomenal Mexican painter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/artist\/maria-izquierdo\">Maria Izquierdo<\/a>, a key figure of the Contempor\u00e1neos movement, in the Venice Biennale in 2024\u2014almost seven decades after her death in 1955. <\/p>\n<p>Our sense of history is being reshaped by revelatory exhibitions like this, and 2025 promises more monographic shows devoted to late women who may not have received their dues during their lifetime. To mark International Women\u2019s Day, celebrated on March 8th, Artsy is highlighting women artists whose tireless contributions to the visual arts are still not as well known as their male peers. This list is a reminder that there are still many neglected legacies yet to be uncovered, though this does not diminish the power of so many artists whose work has had an abiding influence and impact outside of them. Here are nine late women artists who are receiving overdue recognition on the international stage this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>B. 1930, Toronto.

The exhibition, a retrospective entitled \u201cTrue Patriot Love,\u201d featured sculptures and assemblages that revealed Wieland\u2019s intertwined interest in the environment, feminism, and the society of her homeland. <\/p>\n<p>Wieland overcame a difficult early life. While working as a graphic designer, she learned filmmaking and animation techniques that she later adapted into experimental films. In the 1960s, while living in New York, she created prolifically and experimented voraciously, creating avant-garde paintings, sculptures, and films in dialogue with both the burgeoning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/collection\/pop-art\">Pop<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/collection\/conceptual-art\">Conceptual Art<\/a> movements. But she was only recognized by film circles\u2014in 1968, her films were screened at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/the-museum-of-modern-art\">Museum of Modern Art<\/a> in New York\u2014and never really broke into the New York art scene. She returned to her home country in 1971, where she is still best known. <\/p>\n<p>This year, the largest, most comprehensive exhibition on Wieland to date, at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/montreal-museum-of-fine-arts\">Montreal Museum of Fine Arts<\/a>, runs through May. \u201cHeart On\u201d shows the scope of Wieland\u2019s work, from figurative oil paintings, to sculptures fashioned with found objects, to 16mm film works composed of offcuts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>B. 1891, Columbus, Georgia.

She became a junior high school art teacher, a career that lasted 35 years. It was only later in life that Thomas began to paint confidently and to seek out a \u201cnew art representing a new era,\u201d looking to nature to inspire her luminous, lucid works, and explosive, expressive patterns of color.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas made history in 1972 when she became the first Black woman to have a solo exhibition at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/whitney-museum-of-american-art-1\">Whitney<\/a>. More recently, her painting <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/artwork\/alma-thomas-resurrection\">Resurrection<\/a><\/em> (1966) was the first artwork by a Black woman to be included in the collection of the White House. However, the extent of Thomas\u2019s originality, flair, and influence has only gradually been acknowledged over the years and she never reached the acclaim of her male peers in abstraction. This year sees her four-venue retrospective, \u201cComposing Color,\u201d continue to tour the United States. Currently at Memorial Art Gallery in Rochester, New York, the show draws on the largest collection of Thomas paintings (held by the Smithsonian, which first acquired Thomas\u2019s work in 1970) and continues to bolster her astonishing legacy, consolidating her singular place in art history.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/article\/artsy-editorial-alma-thomas-arrived-seminal-style-vibrant-abstract-painting\">How Alma Thomas Arrived at Her Seminal Style of Vibrant Abstract Painting<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>B. 1906, Assam, India.

Fusing her spiritual beliefs with her art, Colquhoun\u2019s paintings are bursting with sensuality and eroticism, often referencing biblical stories and myths focused on powerful women. She explored her interest in the subconscious and dreams through techniques of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/gene\/automatism\">automatism<\/a>. Colquhoun is also known for her intense palettes ranging from warm amber to fiery pinks and lucid blues. <\/p>\n<p>Colquhoun\u2019s contributions were all but ignored, however, until very recently. This was due to both chauvinism in the Surrealist movement (which Colquhoun herself called out in her lifetime) and her removal from the British Surrealist Group for her ardent interest in the occult. <\/p>\n<p>The Tate acquired Colquhoun\u2019s archives in 2019, and her name has become more recognized following the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/centre-pompidou\">Centre Pompidou<\/a>\u2019s 2024 centenary show on Surrealism (now at Madrid\u2019s Fundaci\u00f3n MAPFRE, and coming to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/philadelphia-museum-of-art\">Philadelphia Museum of Art<\/a> later this year). A major touring retrospective, \u201cBetween Worlds,\u201d also opened at Tate St. Ives (Colquhoun spent time in Cornwall, where the gallery is located) last month, and will travel to its Tate Britain location in the summer, reassessing the importance of this radical artist\u2019s legacy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/article\/artsy-editorial-women-surrealism-muses-masters\">The Pivotal Role that Women Have Played in Surrealism<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>B. 1929, Laurel, Florida.

Browne taught the history of Black art at Rutgers University, where she was a professor, and founded two advocacy groups: the Black Emergency Cultural Coalition, fighting for Black representation in museums; and SoHo20, one of Manhattan\u2019s first women\u2019s art cooperatives. <\/p>\n<p>Over a three-decade career, Browne also worked tirelessly to create paintings, prints, and works on paper that challenged the status quo: electric and emotive works that could not be easily defined as abstract or figurative, and were often disquieting and grotesque. Her most famous body of work, \u201cLittle Men,\u201d comprises 100 satirical paintings and drawings of angry middle-aged white men. <\/p>\n<p>For 2025, The Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, and The Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C. have organized an extensive survey of Browne\u2019s work, introducing material that has only recently been discovered. The show is on view at Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati through May 25th, then travels to the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., where it runs from June 28th to September 28th.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>B. 1877, Berlin.

She lived most of her life with no contact with the outside world. The artist worked in batik and took up painting with acrylics only in her seventies. She worked as an artist for eight years, producing in that time a staggering 3,000 paintings. Her works were inspired by her experiences as custodian of the women\u2019s Dreaming sites\u2014places of ancestral importance believed to contain stories and knowledge. Her vivid painted visions of this land evoke her intense sense of identification with the place she lived. <\/p>\n<p>Kam Kngwarray became known to the wider art world at age 80. In 1997, she represented Australia at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/article\/artsy-editorial-koyo-kouoh-appointed-curator-2026-venice-biennale\">Venice Biennale<\/a>.

Valadon grew up with a single mother in poverty, and after working for a time as an acrobat in the circus, she taught herself to draw and paint, studying artists\u2019 techniques while working as a model and muse. She was never associated with any style and bucked the trends of the time. Her irreverence for traditions made history: She is known as the first woman to paint a male nude, and her raw, real female nudes and portraits of working-class women equally scandalized audiences at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Though Valadon received considerable praise during her lifetime, including becoming the first woman painter to be admitted to the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Nationale des Beaux-Arts, there have been few exhibitions on Valadon since the 1960s. This year, a Centre Pompidou survey, featuring almost 200 works and running through May, is the first major monographic exhibition on Valadon in France since 1967.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<h3>B. 1926, Norwalk, California.

In 2017, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/david-zwirner\">David Zwirner<\/a> began representing the artist\u2019s estate, which has led to broader worldwide recognition and a deeper understanding of Asawa and her myriad innovations as an artist. In recent years, the Whitney held the first exhibition of Asawa\u2019s drawings (\u201cRuth Asawa Through Line\u201d in 2023), and she was posthumously awarded the National Medal of Arts in 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0\">\n<div display=\"flex\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 Flex-sc-cw39ct-0 idkEHS\">\n<div width=\"100%\" overflow=\"hidden\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2996 \/ 3000;max-width:100%\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 jJVzlg\"><button width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" cursor=\"pointer\" type=\"button\" class=\"Clickable-sc-10cr82y-0 ArticleZoomButton__Button-sc-a0e66a1d-1 hgRaTA cvpDYh\"><\/p>\n<div width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 fnOOKv\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" display=\"block\" style=\"transition:opacity 0.2s ease-in-out;opacity:0\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?quality=80&amp;resize_to=width&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Fd32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net%2FEhEHEjCN2L21I_9a4hgaBQ%2Fnormalized.jpg&amp;width=450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?quality=80&amp;resize_to=width&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Fd32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net%2FEhEHEjCN2L21I_9a4hgaBQ%2Fnormalized.jpg&amp;width=450 1x, https:\/\/d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?quality=80&amp;resize_to=width&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Fd32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net%2FEhEHEjCN2L21I_9a4hgaBQ%2Fnormalized.jpg&amp;width=900 2x\" alt=\"Ruth Asawa, \u2018Untitled (P.002-I Tied-Wire Sculpture Drawing with Five-Pointed Center Star, Embossed [Silver])\u2019, 1973, Print, Embossed photographic silver foil on rolled Rives BFK paper, David Zwirner\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 guRykI\"\/><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<div width=\"100%\" overflow=\"hidden\" style=\"aspect-ratio:2633 \/ 3000;max-width:100%\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 jJVzlg\"><button width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" cursor=\"pointer\" type=\"button\" class=\"Clickable-sc-10cr82y-0 ArticleZoomButton__Button-sc-a0e66a1d-1 hgRaTA cvpDYh\"><\/p>\n<div width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 fnOOKv\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" display=\"block\" style=\"transition:opacity 0.2s ease-in-out;opacity:0\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?quality=80&amp;resize_to=width&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Fd32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net%2FauHWXtq4k-df-OqJTVlaNg%2Fmain.jpg&amp;width=450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?quality=80&amp;resize_to=width&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Fd32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net%2FauHWXtq4k-df-OqJTVlaNg%2Fmain.jpg&amp;width=450 1x, https:\/\/d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?quality=80&amp;resize_to=width&amp;src=https%3A%2F%2Fd32dm0rphc51dk.cloudfront.net%2FauHWXtq4k-df-OqJTVlaNg%2Fmain.jpg&amp;width=900 2x\" alt=\"Ruth Asawa, \u2018Untitled (P.001, Tied wire tree with six branches)\u2019, 1995, Print, Ink on French rag paper, David Zwirner\" class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 guRykI\"\/><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Box-sc-15se88d-0 ArticleHTML__Container-sc-72bc87bd-0 hsljei dCLIGr\">\n<p>Yet it is only this year that Asawa will have her first major international retrospective.

The artist\u2019s trademark was leaving her artworks intentionally undone. As Upson said: \u201cThere are no fixed boundaries in my art, it\u2019s more like a fragmented narrative full of cracks and openings that you can enter and leave wherever you wish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first museum retrospective dedicated to Upson, opening May 27th at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/louisiana-museum-of-modern-art\">Louisiana Museum<\/a> in Denmark, positions Upson as one of the leading artists of her generation, in her multimedia work evoking fantasy, desire, and obsession. The show will celebrate her work\u2019s versatility, inventiveness, and intensity through performances, films, drawings, paintings, and sculptures. Many of these works were inspired by a collection of personal belongings Upson found in an abandoned property across the street from her parents\u2019 home in San Bernardino, California, in 2003. She invented the identity \u201cLarry\u201d for the man these once belonged to, and they inspired an ongoing body of work. <\/p>\n<p>Prior to her death, Upson was beginning to exhibit at national and international institutions, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/article\/artsy-editorial-2017-whitney-biennial-pitch-perfect-survey-art-today\">Whitney Biennial in 2017<\/a>, and a solo exhibition at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artsy.net\/partner\/new-museum-1\">New Museum<\/a> the same year.
