The ten most expensive paintings in history were painted by men. And of the $196 billion spent on art at auction in the last decade, women accounted for only 2% of sales. So why are so few female artists represented in the world of art?
In this new series of five films, Questions about Art, we'll explore some frequent musings about art - using questions asked by our audiences. What makes a painting iconic? Who decides what art is worth? Why can’t I touch artworks when I'm in a gallery? Check back weekly for new videos, and get involved in the comments below.
