Selected to the Forbes "30 Under 30 in Arts & Culture" list in 2021, Katy Hessel (UK) is a pivotal figure in understanding the art world today. Her Instagram account @thegreatwomenartists has been celebrating the work of women artists on a daily basis since 2015, and on her podcast The Great Women Artists she interviews visual artists and writers. Hessel is an art historian, curator, lecturer and writer. Her first book, The Story of Art Without Men (2023), offers an alternative view from the Renaissance to the present day that includes women who are invisible but who made fundamental contributions. We will learn about these fascinating stories from around the world in five hundred years of history that shaped the path to where we are today. Katy Hessel will talk with Toni Celia, director of Art and Culture Cayena and Daniela Pabón, professor at the Humanities and philosophy department at Universidad del Norte.
