Ten statues of famous women were installed in New York last week as the first part of an international project by Australian artists to highlight gender imbalance in monuments.

Media mogul and talk show queen Oprah Winfrey, Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett and three-time Olympic gold medallist Gabby Douglas were among the personalities chosen by the public to be carved in bronze.
