This image is a poster by the Guerrilla Girls, an anonymous group of feminist, female artists devoted to fighting sexism and racism within the art world. The poster includes bold, black text that asks the question, "Q. HOW MANY WORKS BY WOMEN ARTISTS WERE IN THE ANDY WARHOL* AND TREMAINE AUCTIONS AT SOTHEBY'S?" Below this question, there is an answer space labeled with "A." that is intentionally left blank. A yellow banana forms the letter 'C' in the word "auctions" and is the only graphic element in an otherwise text-only layout. At the bottom, in smaller text, it reads "Please send $ and comments to:" followed by the Guerrilla Girls' former mailing address. The asterisk next to Andy Warhol's name refers to a small footnote at the bottom right corner which states, "The Contemporary Art Auction." The bottom left corner of the poster has the phrase "GUERRILLA GIRLS CONSCIENCE OF THE ART WORLD," indicating their role as a thought-provoking and critical voice in the art community. These posters were used as a form of public protest and advocacy to highlight gender and racial disparities in the art world, particularly the underrepresentation of women artists in auctions, galleries, and museums.
