Mathilde Ter Heijne at Jack Hanley Gallery

Photos of anonymous women, taken from the early days of photography to the 1920s, line the walls of Jack Hanley Gallery as part of Dutch artist Mathilde Ter Heijne’s testament to the gradually improving status of women.  On the back of each is a biography of a woman well-known in her time for advancing women’s causes.  Visitors can take one away for inspiration.  (On the Lower East Side through Feb 2nd).
