Until very recently, the art historical record has been primarily written by, and about, men. In conjunction with its current exhibition, [*The Collectivists*](http://www.glendaleca.gov/government/departments/library-arts-culture/brand-library-art-center/brand-library-art-galleries/the-collectivists?ref=hyperallergic.com), a group show highlighting artist-run alternatives to mainstream cultural institutions, the Brand Library is hosting [Herstorians](http://www.glendaleca.gov/Home/Components/Calendar/Event/24994/125?selcat=68&curm=3&cury=2017&ref=hyperallergic.com), a panel discussion on the opportunities, challenges, and obligations that female arts writers have to examine underrepresented artists and demographics. Moderated by [*Artillery Magazine*](http://artillerymag.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com) editor Tulsa Kinney, the panel includes Annie Buckley ([*Artforum*](https://www.artforum.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com), [*Los Angeles Review of Books*](https://lareviewofbooks.org/?ref=hyperallergic.com)), Carol Cheh ([*LA Weekly*](http://www.laweekly.com/authors/carol-cheh-2494609?ref=hyperallergic.com), [Another Righteous Transfer](https://anotherrighteoustransfer.wordpress.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com)), [Sharon Mizota](http://www.sharonmizota.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com) (*Los Angeles Times*), and Leanna Robinson (*Artillery Magazine*). Following the discussion, there will be a reception celebrating the launch of the latest issue of *Artillery* titled “Art & the New Regime,” which focuses on artists’ responses to the Trump administration.

**When:** Sunday, March 5, 2–3:30pm
