New York art gallery exhibition reviews and catalogs analyzed by race and gender

Dataset

Description

This dataset builds on an existing dataset which captures artists’ demographics who are represented by top tier galleries in the 2016–2017 New York art season (Case-Leal, 2017, https://web.archive.org/web/20170617002654/http://www.havenforthedispossessed.org/) with a census of reviews and catalogs about those exhibitions to assess proportionality of media coverage across race and gender. The readme file explains variables, collection, relationship between the datasets, and an example of how the Case-Leal dataset was transformed. The ArticleDataset.csv provides all articles with citation information as well as artist, artistic identity characteristic, and gallery. The ExhibitionCatalog.csv provides exhibition catalog citation information for each identified artist.
