Berta Sichel, Director of Audiovisuals at the Reina Sofia Museum Madrid who recently started a video collection for the museum. The inaugural exhibition for the the collection contained 32 installations,12 of them by women (maybe a museum record?) and her programming has celebrated a wide range of internationallly known women. Second Sarah's eloquent praise of Kathy Rae Huffman who was Director of Cornerhouse which commissioned my artwork Man With A Movie Camera:The Global Remake through its Bigger Picture program. Every artist should be as lucky as I was to have such an encouraging and supportive working relationship. Simone De Beauvoir for contributing a female voice to the history of western thought.
