The bottom of the poster includes the name "GUERRILLA GIRLS" and refers to them as the "CONSCIENCE OF THE ART WORLD." Additionally, it shows a box number from Cooper Station in New York City, NY, suggesting that is a contact or mailing address related to the group.

The image is a poster created by the Guerrilla Girls, an anonymous group of feminist, female artists devoted to fighting sexism and racism within the art world. The poster is titled "GUERRILLA GIRLS' CODE OF ETHICS FOR ART MUSEUMS" and is designed to look like two marble tablets, reminiscent of the Ten Commandments. The text is divided into ten "commandments" that highlight various ethical concerns and practices within the art museum industry.

The commandments are as follows:

1. Thou shalt not be a Museum Trustee and also the Chief Stockholder of a Major Auction House.
2. A Curator shall not exhibit an Artist, or the Artists of a Dealer, with whom he/she has had a sexual relationship, unless such liaison is explicitly stated on a wall label 8” from the exhibited work.
3. Thou shalt not give more than 3 retrospectives to an Artist whose Dealer is the brother of the Chief Curator.
4. Thou shalt not limit thy Board of Trustees to Corporate Officers, Wealthy Entrepreneurs and Social Hangers-on. At least 20% must be Artists representing the racial and gender percentages of the U.S. population.
5. Thou shalt not permit Corporations to launder their public images in Museums until they cleaneth up their Toxic Waste Dumps and Oil Slicks.
6. Thou shalt provide lavish funerals for Women and Artists of Color who thou planeth to exhibit only after their death.
7. If thou art an Art Collector sitting on the Acquisitions or Exhibitions Committee, thou shalt useth thy influence to enhance the value of thine own collection not more than once a year.
8. Thy Corporate Benefactors who earneth their income from products for Women and People of Color shalt earmark their Museum donations for exhibits and acquisitions of art by those groups.
9. Thou shalt keepeth Curatorial Salaries so low that Curators must be Independently Wealthy, or willing to engage in Insider Trading.
10. Thou shalt admit to the Public that words such as genius, masterpiece, seminal, potent, tough, gritty and powerful are used solely to prop up the Myth and inflate the Market Value of White Male Artists.

The poster ends with a signature-like mark reading "GUERRILLA GIRLS CONSCIENCE OF THE ART WORLD" and a postal address at the bottom. The tone of the commandments is satirical and critical, aiming to expose the inequities and corruption in the art world.

This is an artwork by the Guerrilla Girls, an activist art group, titled "Code of Ethics for Art Museums." The piece is designed to look like stone tablets reminiscent of the Ten Commandments, containing ten rules critiquing the art world's practices and biases.

The rules address various ethical issues in the art museum world, including:

• Conflicts of interest between museum trustees and auction houses
• Representation of diverse artists
• Corporate influence in museums
• Fair pay for curators
• Treatment of women artists and artists of color
• The use of language to inflate market values

The text is presented in a formal, archaic style using "thou shalt" language, creating an ironic parallel with religious commandments. The piece is a sharp criticism of systemic issues in the art world, particularly regarding diversity, corporate influence, and economic inequities.

The bottom of the image includes the Guerrilla Girls' contact information and their self-designation as the "conscience of the art world." The overall design is stark black text on a marble-like background, giving it an official, serious appearance while delivering its satirical message.

The image is a poster created by the Guerrilla Girls, a feminist activist group. It's designed to look like a stone tablet, perhaps like the Ten Commandments, but it's presenting a "Code of Ethics for Art Museums." The text is laid out in a formal style, with Roman numerals and archaic language ("thou shalt," etc.) to mimic religious commandments.

The "commandments" are satirical critiques of the art world, addressing issues of:

• Conflicts of Interest: Museum trustees and curators having financial ties to auction houses, dealers, or artists they exhibit.
• Nepotism and Relationships: Exhibiting artists with personal connections to the curator.
• Diversity and Representation: Lack of representation of women, people of color, and artists in general on museum boards and in exhibitions.
• Corporate Influence: The use of museums for corporate public image laundering.
• Artistic Merit and Value: The subjective and often inflated nature of art criticism, particularly as it relates to white male artists.
• Financial Exploitation: The low pay of curators.
• Posthumous Recognition: The timing of recognition for women and artists of color.

The overall message is a witty and critical commentary on the biases, power dynamics, and sometimes hypocritical practices within the art world. The Guerrilla Girls use humor and a historical reference (the Ten Commandments) to make their points and call for greater equity and transparency.
