The Untitled Space gallery is pleased to present group exhibition, SHE INSPIRES,
curated by gallery director and artist Indira Cesarine, featuring the work of 60
contemporary artists with works honoring inspirational women. In the divisive and
challenging era we are currently experiencing filled with political turmoil, protest
and uncertainty, it is important to reflect on those that inspire us. The exhibition,
“She Inspires” will present artworks of many mediums, revolving around women
that have made a positive impact on the world. Each work is an ode to a
woman or group of women that has shaped our past, present and/or will help
form our future. The exhibit aims to not only explore themes of inspiration of
present day female role models, but also the legacy of women who have paved
the way, and to inspire and empower others with visual art on the subject. The
exhibit will take place from May 2- May 26, 2017, with several events to take
place including an opening reception on May 2nd, a special performance by
renowned dancer Katherine Crockett in collaboration with artist Laura Weyl on
May 9th as well as an artist talk on May 16th.

SHE INSPIRES is presented in support of non-profit She Should Run. 10% of exhibition
proceeds will benefit the non-partisan 501(c)3 organization expanding the talent pool of
future elected female leaders. She Should Run started as a project in 2008 and has
evolved to become a movement working to create a culture that inspires women and
girls to aspire towards public leadership. She Should Run believes that women of all
backgrounds should have an equal shot at elected leadership and that The United
States will benefit from having a government with varied perspectives and experiences.
“We are honored to support non-profit She Should Run with this exhibit focused on
inspirational women. Right now more than ever, it is time for women to take a step
forward and focus on leadership in their communities and beyond. The SHE INSPIRES
exhibit aims to highlight, through the work of male and female contemporary artists,
women throughout history who have made a positive impact. As feminism continues to
gain traction, we are finally shifting our focus to include the accomplishments of many
remarkable women who have influenced our culture. The SHE INSPIRES exhibit honors
contemporary and historical women, It celebrates them and tells their stories, which
should be rightfully included as not just “women’s history” but our history.” – Curator Indira
Cesarine
