Throughout its history, the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art has documented the role of women in the art world by collecting the papers and oral histories of prominent women artists, critics, and art historians along with the records of institutions that supported or disseminated their work. Highlights include the papers of Lucy Lippard and Linda Nochlin, the Elizabeth Murray Oral History of Women in the Visual Arts Project, oral history interviews with the Guerilla Girls, the Woman’s Building records, and much more. You can explore the Archives’ research collections online at http://www.aaa.si.edu/collections.
