“For a long time, the history of art was the story of successful, white men and the story of wealth and power. We all aspire to a much more democratic world, so it’s time to break that open and really ask for a history that looks like us, all of us.” – Guerrilla Girls member Frida Kahlo

As part of the Paul W. Zuccaire Gallery’s presentation of NOT READY TO MAKE NICE: Guerrilla Girls in the Artworld and Beyond, the Guerrilla Girl known as Frida Kahlo spoke to student journalists before her lecture at Stony Brook University.
