The humanities and historical research have been increasingly focussing on the achievements of female artists, writers, musicians, choreographers, directors – creative women in general – for some time now.
Female artistic creation of earlier generations has thus come more into the public eye – as have the obstacles that were once placed in the way of female artists to a much greater extent than today. In the 21st century, female artists of younger and middle generations no longer lack role models.
How do they reflect female creativity today? How do they inscribe themselves in a genealogy of female artists with their own artistic work? What is their view of those who have long been ignored, forgotten, or even actively banned from the narrative by historiography? How do they relate to their ancestors and pioneers, to those who were active in the visual arts, but also in other artistic fields? The exhibition AUF DEN SCHULTERN VON RIESINNEN curated by Nina Schedlmayer aims to shed light on questions such as these.
