Abstract:

This talk seeks to discuss the fundamental role of women curators and museum directors in redefining the artistic and cultural field. Through their leadership, they have driven new ways of working, promoting more inclusive, collaborative, and diverse structures within some institutions. Additionally, they have challenged traditional narratives, creating spaces for transformation and dialogue that have enriched the way art is conceived, managed, and presented to the public.
