From the National Gallery of Victoria website:
“In the 1970s feminism systematically challenged many of the social and artistic values and beliefs that marginalised women, including the idea of ‘male artistic genius’ and the gendered construction of art history. It also presented new perspectives on the art of the past that recognised the achievements of women artists, such as Sutherland. However, Sutherland was one of a significant number of women artists before this time who effectively challenged such values and beliefs during her own lifetime through a passionate and professional commitment to her art.”
