中央美术学院美术馆学术部主任、本次展览的策展人王春辰致辞，他首先感谢了参展艺术家和工作团队对于此次展览的莫大支持，并颇具感情地说起他与布罗德美术馆的渊源，特别是与已过世地馆长Micheal Rush的交往。借由本次展览，希望“女性艺术”不只是在国际上引发话题，更是能在中国国内引起关注并讨论。

展览开幕后，随即进行了3个行为表演。胡佳艺的行为表演《旅行箱》持续20分钟，艺术家以“我从哪来”、“我要到哪里去”这两个哲学基本命题来反思第三个哲学基本命题“我是谁”，整个表演颇有感染力。

林苒的表演《岛》则以线为媒介，捆绑和挣扎，引发现场观众对于女性情感的思考。

最后推向高潮的是，策展人王春辰为罗苇作品《美狄亚的脑电波》所做的表演。王春辰原本是一位策展人和男性的身份，却扮演一位经典的女性角色“美狄亚”，介入到一件女性作品中，引发了现场观众持续的讨论。

在艺术家见面会之后，于布罗德美术馆东南角的公共教育区举办了关于本次展览的学术研讨会。此次研讨会由芝加哥艺术学院Jennifer Li女士主持，并有策展人王春辰教授、参展艺术家于霏霏、裴丽、胡佳艺、林苒、吴梦诗、刘玉洁、贺晓春、周巧云、张亚宁、米玉明出席，研讨会吸引了近百位观众到场参与讨论。

首先，策展人王春辰教授对展览进行了简要介绍。王春辰教授谈到，如今在中国有很多女艺术家不愿被称为“女性艺术家”甚至“女艺术家”，只是想被称为“艺术家”，她们并不专注于自己的性别。而此次在布罗德美术馆举办“中国新一代女艺术家”展览也并非要给艺术家们贴上某种标签，只是想展示这些艺术家及她们的故事和艺术。随后，Jennifer女士对此进行了回应，她认为女艺术家们不想被贴标签，是因为不想受到某种束缚，并提到我们今天所要讨论的是“我们的艺术源于何处”，“你的背景如何影响作品的创造”的问题。并就女性主义如何帮助艺术家们在媒介、个人经历等方面思考艺术问题，与在场艺术家进行了讨论。而对于“女性主义”一词，在场艺术家亦有各自不同看法。如艺术家于霏霏认为自己并不是天生的女性主义者，而是在英国伦敦学习的过程中，收割了上一代女性主义者的成果，因而自己也成为其中一员；林苒认为对她而言，对女性主义的追问也是对艺术本质的追问；而裴丽则表示对女性主义没有明确概念，更多的关注于“美”。
