GuerrillaGirlsBroadBand

American art activists

Quick Summary

GuerrillaGirlsBroadBand was a digital-media endeavor that emerged from the original Guerrilla Girls art activist group, founded in 1985. The Guerrilla Girls aimed to highlight the underrepresentation of women and artists of color in the art world and expose the dominance of white males in the art establishment. They used posters with statistics and a sense of humor to address issues like sexism, racism, unequal pay, and lack of representation. In 2001, the group split into three, with GuerrillaGirlsBroadBand focusing on digital media, expanding the original group's mission into new platforms.1
