Organized by curator and art historian Alison M. Gingeras, the exhibition "THE WOMAN QUESTION" challenges the notion that women were largely absent from art before the late 1800s. 

The nine-part visual narrative is a testament to the enduring and dynamic creativity of women artists over the last 500 years. The result is a collection of nearly 200 works, including paintings by Renaissance, Baroque and 19th-century women artists through more contemporary works, offering a centuries-long visual history of women’s "emancipation."

Among the many artists are also three represented in the Art Collection Telekom: Aneta Grzeszykowska, Lesia Khomenko and Paulina Ołowska.
