Description

EPISODE 22 of 'All About Art': Gender in the Arts: a Book Review of 'Invisible Women' by Caroline Criado-Perez

This episode is a book review of 'Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men' by Caroline Criado-Perez. I delve into various chapters within the book and make specific connections to the arts and cultural sector through issues of representation, exclusion, and a "default male" approach that affects our daily lives.
