"We call models "muses", and that's mostly what's left in the history of art for women artists...Dora Maar was the muse of Picasso but also a photographer at the centre of the surrealist scene. And |Gabrièle Picabia was the wife of [avant-garde painter [[w:Francis Picabia||Francis] Picabia]] but also the brain of his work. It's about co-creation, not this fetishised, silent woman standing there beautiful and mute"
