After a two-year hiatus due to renovations, the National Museum of Women is pulling out all the stops for its inaugural exhibition. Along with massive works by Ursula von Rydingsvard and Rina Banerjee, the show features recently acquired and never before exhibited sculptures by the artists Sonya Clark, Beatriz Milhazes, Cornelia Parker, Mariah Robertson, Shinique Smith, and Joana Vasconcelos. Their works defy the boundaries of the space—they hang from the ceiling, slip down the walls, and sprawl across the floor—underscoring the limitless potential of female artists and their mediums. —Clara Molot
