The Guerrilla Girls, a group that protests what it calls âsexism and racism in politics, the art world, film and the culture at large,â sent an open letter to the philanthropist Eli Broad saying that female and minority artists are inadequately represented in the exhibition at the new Broad Contemporary Art Museum at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and in the collection of Mr. Broadâs private foundation. In a posting on the groupâs Web site, guerrillagirls.com, the organization claims that of the 30 artists in the inaugural exhibition at the Broad Museum, 97 percent are white and 87 percent are male. Similarly, the group says that of the 194 artists in the collection of the Broad Foundation, the nonprofit organization that acts as a âlending libraryâ for Mr. Broadâs art holdings, 96 percent are white and 83 percent are male. That, the group said, is âan insignificant number of women and artists of color.â A spokeswoman for the Broad Foundation did not immediately return phone calls or reply to an e-mail message requesting comment.
