Artist | Icon | Inspiration: Women in Photography explores the role of women as artists, subjects and innovators in a collaborative effort between Peter Fetterman and Phillips.
Women have played a central role in photography throughout the history of the medium. They have shaped the trajectory and development of this art form through their participation as creators and sources of inspiration. This auction celebrates the varied roles they have played by offering works of art created through the lenses of women like Dorothea Lange, Diane Arbus, Graciela Iturbide, Carrie Mae Weems, Shirin Neshat and Sally Mann alongside portraits of women who continue to inspire us today, such as Rosa Parks, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Jacqueline Kennedy.
