Filmmaker Lynn Hershman Leeson traces the largely ignored history of women in art in a new documentary and interactive WIKI community—and aims to fill in the gaps

These are the questions Lynn Hershman Leeson aims to answer in her new documentary !W.A.R.: Women Art Revolution and online, community-supported WIKI database RAW/WAR.
