Her Art, Part 3: Breaking Boundaries at the Dawn of Modernism (1900–1930) is part of an ongoing lecture series dedicated to rediscovering women artists who have been historically overlooked.

Hosted by Art with Tosca, this session focuses on a transformative period in art history, when modernism began to take shape and artists challenged long-established academic traditions. The lecture examines how women artists actively participated in — and contributed to — this shift, despite institutional barriers that often excluded them from formal recognition.

Spanning the early 20th century, the talk highlights key figures who pushed artistic and social boundaries, redefining genres, experimenting with new forms of expression, and asserting their place within the evolving modern art movement.

Through a broader cultural and historical lens, the lecture offers insight into how these artists not only responded to modernity but helped shape it — laying the groundwork for future generations and expanding the canon of art history.
