This thematic dossier is grounded in the recognition that art history has long been shaped by narratives that marginalized or rendered invisible the artistic contributions of women. Although recent decades have witnessed increased visibility for women artists and significant advances in feminist art scholarship, inequalities persist in processes of representation, legitimation, and cultural memory formation. The contributions gathered in this issue offer a critical reassessment of these narratives by recovering overlooked trajectories, reinterpreting archives, questioning regimes of visibility, and examining contemporary artistic practices that challenge established hierarchies. Drawing on diverse geographical, temporal, and disciplinary contexts, the articles address themes such as cinema, memory, exile, performance, digital media art, artivism, and artificial intelligence, highlighting the role of women in artistic production and in the creation of alternative forms of knowledge.
