In honour of International Women’s Day next Monday, we are highlighting Canadian women artists across the country who have achieved outstanding accomplishments in their careers and paved the way for others to succeed in the art world. Taking a cue from this year’s IWD hashtag and theme—#ChoosetoChallenge—which celebrates women’s successes, promotes awareness against bias, and calls for action for equality, we are looking at works that show women reflecting on their place in the arts and in society and boldly confronting gender imparity. Although there is still much progress to be made, the selection below reveals how far women from diverse communities have come. It also highlights the crucial role of artists in imagining and shaping a more equitable world, one where we celebrate women’s independence, strength, and ambition.”
