The image is an artwork by the Guerrilla Girls addressing gender and racial inequality in Hollywood. It consists of three main panels with bold text and graphics.
1. The left panel features the text "Send a message to those body-obsessed guys in Hollywood" next to an image of a person in a leopard-skin gown, with their back turned, drawing attention to body image issues in the industry.
2. The middle panel shows "The Anatomically Correct Oscar" with a statuette resembling the traditional Oscar but with exaggerated male features. It criticizes the lack of diversity, noting that no woman has ever won an Oscar for Direction, Cinematography, or Sound, and 94% of writing awards have gone to men. It also highlights that only 3% of the acting awards go to persons of color.
3. The right panel presents a cartoon of two bathroom doors labeled "Women" and "Directors," indicating the scarcity of female directors in Hollywood. Beneath this, it states that in 1987, only 2.4% of major films were directed by women, which rose to only 4% by 1999. Lastly, it contrasts thin, thinner, and thinnest, discussing the earnings of female actors, and highlighting that African-Americans get only 13.4% of acting jobs, Latinas 3.5%, and Asians 2.1%.
All messages are signed by the Guerrilla Girls, known for their activist art addressing sexism and racism.

This image is a graphic poster featuring text and visual elements that convey a message about gender bias and stereotypes in Hollywood. The left side of the poster includes text that reads "SEND A MESSAGE TO THOSE BODY OBSESSED GUYS IN HOLLYWOOD:" suggesting a call to action against a specific attitude in the film industry. Alongside the text is a person disguised in a gorilla mask, turned away from the camera, in a partial state of undress which appears to be making a statement about objectification.
The right side of the poster has three sections. At the top, there is an illustration of a trophy labeled "THE ANATOMICALLY CORRECT OSCAR," followed by critical commentary about the winners typically being male. Below that, there is a cartoon depicting two restroom doors, one marked "WOMEN" and the other marked "DIRECTORS," with a message that implies women are underrepresented as film directors. The bottom section has text blocks titled "THIN," "THINNER," and "THINNEST," each followed by commentary on the career age range for female actors, the percentage of roles for female actors over 40, and the percentage of acting jobs going to different racial groups, suggesting issues of ageism and racial discrimination in the industry.
The entire poster is branded with the name "GUERRILLA GIRLS YOUR CULTURAL CONSCIENCE" and provides a website address, connecting the artwork to this activist group known for raising awareness about sexism and racism within the arts. There are instructions to Xerox the page onto adhesive label sheets, cut apart, and stick up in movie theatre bathrooms, suggesting a grass-roots, guerrilla-style campaign to spread the message.
