Organized by the Centre Pompidou in Paris, home to the Musée National d'Art Moderne -- one of the largest collections of modern and contemporary art in Europe -- this exhibition is an unforgettable visual experience that will challenge visitors' assumptions about art of the past century. This ambitious survey of daring painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, video, and installations by innovative women artists offers a fresh perspective on a history of modern and contemporary art. Artists include Sonia Delaunay, Frida Kahlo, Dora Maar, Diane Arbus, Marina Abramović, Louise Bourgeois, Atsuko Tanaka, Cindy Sherman, Sophie Calle, Hannah Wilke, Nan Goldin, Tania Bruguera, and others.

The 1929 Wall Street collapse plunged Americans into a period of great uncertainty as unemployment skyrocketed, banks failed, and housing foreclosures hit record highs. Hope in Hard Times shares how ordinary people worked for change in their communities, pulling together to find ways to deal with the crisis. A billy club used during the 1934 "Battle of Smith Cove," WPA artifacts and everyday items are among some of the objects showcased in this exhibition. The paintings and sketches of Ronald Debs Ginther, also featured in the exhibition, comprise one of the most complete visual records of the Great Depression.
