Young female artists are finally getting some art-market traction—but their predecessors remain scandalously undervalued:
The Art Detective is a weekly column by Katya Kazakina for Artnet News Pro that lifts the curtain on what’sTwo female artists made their debuts in high-stakes evening auctions in New York in May: one was an 82-year-old veteran with a long history of solo exhibitions, museum acquisitions, and rave reviews. The other was a 27-year-old newbie.
Consider that Jamian Juliano-Villani has generated about twice as much money at auction as Ringgold , who just had a career retrospective at the New Museum. Or that the $18.8 million total by Loie Hollowell exceeded Steir’s $18.3 million. But younger women are also experiencing significantly more momentum. Total sales by women in the ultra-contemporary segment rose more than 800 percent since 2017. For those born between 1930 and 1974, sales rose just 65 percent.
In September, the trendsetting Karma gallery will present a group show by 30 older female artists, including Heilmann, Murray, Ringgold, and Rothenberg.
