‘STILL COUNTING’
Guerrilla Girls
The Guerrilla Girls are anonymous artist activists who use disruptive headlines, outrageous visuals and killer statistics to expose gender and ethnic bias and corruption in art, film, politics and pop culture. They undermine the idea of a mainstream narrative by revealing the understory, the subtext, the overlooked, and the downright unfair. Their latest book, Guerrilla Girls: The Art of Behaving Badly, chronicles almost everything they have done: hundreds of posters, stickers, billboards, books, videos and street projects all over the world, as well as interventions and exhibitions blasting museums on their own walls for their bad behavior. The Guerrilla Girls’ motto: Do one thing. If it works, do another. If it doesn’t, do another anyway. Keep chipping away. Creative complaining works!
Below is a selection of their work combating racism, sexism, museum corruption, income inequality, and sexual harassment & assault from their very beginning to today.
