On their recent list of digital content ‘Better than Netflix’, Deutsche Bank ArtMag described Hundred Heroines as: “An overdue voyage of discovery for any art photography aficionado.”
In their words: “It all started in 2018 with the selection of 100 heroines, contemporary women photographers who have made history with their work and broken new ground. The response was so great that since then the organization has honored heroines of photography annually, presented their works and biographies on its website, and organized online film festivals and exhibitions featuring their work.”
This led us to think about the process of curating our own ‘Voyages of Discovery’ – mini virtual tours around the website.
We are interested in showing how Heroines’ work can be used for positive change and how it sits within the framework of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. For your own Voyage of Discovery, think about how you can choose one or two of these goals for the theme; for example, the content you curate might revolve around ‘Wellbeing’ (goal 3) or ‘Infrastructure’ (goal 9). The goal might link to your Voyage directly, or in an abstract way. If you’re not sure it links to any of the UN Goals, think about how it links to Gender Equality (goal 5). Women are underrepresented in cultural programming – your Voyage is helping to address this imbalance!
