‘Enlightened women: British women artists in the eighteenth century’ was a collaborative curatorial workshop comprising of a keynote address and a series of short form papers in the morning followed by a workshop in the afternoon. The workshop aimed to devise a curatorial rational for a hypothetical exhibition about women and visual culture in Britain during the eighteenth century. This hypothetical exhibition would draw material from collections in the UK and Australia and an Australian iteration was held at The Australian National University in October.
