Know My Name celebrates art by women from across Australia. With more than 150 artists profiled and texts written by more than 115 women writers, the book aims to highlight the artists and their work and shift assumptions that the histories of art are male dominated. It aspires to make the art of women better known in the wider community, and to counter the dominance of art historical displays emphasising men. By turning the tables, we present an opportunity to reckon with the strength and breadth of women's contributions to the art of this country.
