Oldest figurative art

Schelklingen figure, photo by D.Maurer/AP"The 40,000-year-old carved figure of a voluptuous woman was excavated in Germany. It 'radically changes our views of the context and meaning of the earliest Paleolithic art,' its discoverer says."

There's soooo much artwork in the DMV area being created by amazing women artists - I have this idea of (in the future) organizing and curating a show to survey the amazing women artists of the DMV.
