A new annual landmark is arriving in the contemporary art landscape: Art HERstory Magazine — a publication dedicated to celebrating women artists’ stories, “from history to today” — launches its special annual edition, The Art Influencer Edition 2025, spotlighting 50 selected women artists whose work and presence helped shape this year’s artistic conversation.
Curated in collaboration with Art Queens Gallery, the edition arrives at a moment when visibility has become both a creative arena and a cultural battleground. But Art HERstory’s editorial position is clear: influence is not a vanity metric — it is a form of impact.
In an art world increasingly shaped by digital proximity, Art HERstory proposes a more meaningful definition of influence: not just reach, but resonance — the ability to move audiences, build community, and make work travel beyond borders while staying faithful to the studio and the soul of the practice.
That philosophy is at the heart of The Art Influencers Edition 2025, an annual special edition that gathers 50 women artists into one curated cultural document. To capture what sits behind visibility — beyond the polished feed and the public persona — the magazine asked each featured artist the same three questions. Simple on the surface, the questions open into something deeper: honesty about growth, moments of unexpected connection, and the ongoing choice to choose truth over trends.
The edition arrives already surrounded by heightened attention, with growing interest from media and collectors drawn to its clarity of purpose: to honor women shaping contemporary art today, and to amplify their voices with editorial seriousness, international visibility, and long-term cultural positioning.
The Art Influencers Award: public voting opens this month
Alongside the launch, Art HERstory turns readership into participation through the Art Influencers Award, decided through online voting this month. The public can vote via Instagram at @ArtHERstory, as anticipation builds toward the final announcement.
What makes the award especially watchable is that it is not symbolic: it is designed to convert influence into real-world opportunities — exhibition presence, publication power, and career-defining visibility.

Why this edition lands right now
With the theme of “influence” often flattened into performance, Art HERstory insists on something more enduring: presence — the kind that lives in the work, in the studio discipline behind it, and in the communities that gather around artists who stay honest over time. In that sense, The Art Influencers Edition 2025 reads not just as a celebration, but as a statement: women artists are not emerging in the margins of contemporary culture — they are shaping its center.
