If Cheim & Read offers a female perspective on men, a show organized by the all-woman, New York-based Minerva Collective sets its sights on a group of under-celebrated - and predominantly women - artists. “The Minervite is the self-made woman. Her mind is made up, and remade in her own image,” Glenn O’Brien explains in the text accompanying the show. Each member of Minerva - Fabiola Alondra, Erin Goldberger, Anna Furney, and Jane Harmon - nominated an artist whom they had previously interviewed on their Know Wave radio show. That artist then selected another to highlight in the exhibition. The resulting group includes Andrea Belag, Sally Saul, Kurt Kauper, and Lucy Mink-Covello.
