Camille Morineau is a heritage curator and art historian specialising in women artists is since 2014 the co-founder and Executive Director at AWARE (Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions). Based on the observation that women are under-represented or even totally absent from art books, exhibitions, and museum collections, AWARE's mission is to contribute to the visibility of women artists by creating, indexing and disseminating information on women artists of the 18th, 19th and 20thcenturies. A former curator of the contemporary collections at the musée national d’Art moderne – Centre Georges-Pompidou (Paris), she curated numerous exhibitions there, including Yves Klein (2006), Gerhard Richter (2012), Roy Lichtenstein (2013), and the hanging elles@centrepompidou (2009-2011) dedicated solely to female artists from the collections of the musée national d’Art moderne. She has also curated several exhibitions as a free-lance curator, including Niki de Saint Phalle at RMN - Grand Palais (Paris, 2014) and Guggenheim Bilbao (2016), Ceramix. From Rodin to Schütte, about the use of ceramics by artists of the 20th and 21st century, at Bonnefanten Museum Maastricht (2015) and La maison rouge, Fondation Antoine de Galbert, with Manufacture de Sèvres (Paris, 2016). In 2021, she curated the first French retrospective of Françoise Pétrovitch at the Fonds Hélène & Édouard Leclerc in Landerneau, Brittany.
