Guerrilla Girls Body Count: EOY 2022 Summary

 Another year has gone by and a summary count of Juried gallery shows and fine art funding sources follows.

The Pollock-Krasner Foundation grants were given to 41 male artists, 45 women artists, and 1 trans artist.

Real Art Ways (Hartford, CT) selected 3 male artists, 2 female artists, and 1 trans artist.

I had to research a number of juried shows that I was not aware of in real-time during the year.

The Silvermine "A-One" juried show, juried by Sharon Butler, resulted in:

15 male artist's work and 32 female artist's work being selected.

 

The Bowery 31st Annual juried by Lance Esplund resulted in:

13 male artist's work and 15 female artist's work being selected.

The Guilford Art League's 74th Annual Juried Show resulted in:

work by 26 male artists and 59 female artists being selected.

These results combined with existing 2022 juried gallery show results sum up to reveal:

552 art works made by 524 women artists were selected in my inventory of 13 juried shows.
334 art works made by 324 male artists were selected.

Women represent 62% of all artists and artwork accepted in these juried art shows.
Men represent 38%.
