- Description
- This art historical study focuses on the work of four contemporary, female artists of Middle Eastern descent, who migrated at a young age to the West. In their work, they reflect on their experiences of migration and their familiarity with multiple cultures, and awareness of various views on notions as identity, gender and the home. The impact of their migration on how they visualise these experiences and views are diverse in character, partly related to the circumstances of their migration and their relationship to their country of birth. The work of these artists is often interpreted in relation to their background. Referring to the artists’ background can shed an interesting light on their artworks and views. It is, however, necessary to be cautious about placing too much emphasis on their life experiences, as it will leave out many other interesting aspects of their work. Their work has proven to be much more complex than a mere reflection of their background.

- Description
- Mamas of Dada focuses on the lives and works of six female supporters of the Dada movement: Emmy Hennings, Gabrielle Buffet, Germaine Everling, Céline Arnauld, Juliette Roche, and Hannah Höch. Kamenish selected these women for their avant-garde pursuits in the chief centers of Dada's rebellious activity and because they left behind a written record of their involvement with the movement, which was short lived--from 1916 to 1924--but widespread geographically.

- Description
- 'De Duitse kunstenares Hannah Höch (1889-1978) was als enige vrouw lid van de Dada-beweging in Berlijn. De context van de Eerste Wereldoorlog speelde voor Dada een cruciale rol. Hannah Höch maakte veelvuldig gebruik van de fototechniek en stelde als enige Berlijnse dadaïste beelden van de Neue Frau centraal. De Neue Frau was een begrip voor de vrouw uit naoorlogs Duitsland als tegenpool van de vrouw uit de tijd van keizer Wilhelm II: een vrouw met onder andere stemrecht, minder kinderen, betaald werk en wonend in een stad. Er was een vrouw ontstaan met meer zelfbewustzijn, zelfstandigheid en politiek engagement.'

- Description
- Numerous American women artists built successful professional careers in the mid-twentieth century while confronting challenging cultural transitions: shifts in stylistic avant-gardism, harsh political transformations, and changing gender expectations for both women and men. However, while a few women working during these decades have gained significant recognition, many others are still consigned to historical obscurity. The essays in this volume take varied approaches to revising this historical silence. Two focus on evidence of gender biases in several exhibitions and contemporary critical writings: the rest discuss individual artists’ complex relationships to mainstream developments, with attention to gender and political biases, cultural innovations, and the influence of racial/ethnic diversity. Several also explore new interpretative directions to open alternative possibilities for evaluating women’s aesthetic and formal choices. Contents: Introduction: challenges, tensions, accomplishments / Helen Langa. Part I Exhibitions: Opportunities and Resistances: Art of this century: a transitional space for women / Siobhan M. Conaty: Gender, modern art, and native women painters in the first half of the 20th century / Cynthia Fowler.

- FemLink-Art is a women's artists' initiative, founded in 2005 by the French artist Véronique Sapin and the American artist C.M. Judge, with to goal to create an international common artwork that builds a link throughout the world between women artists and their work. From 2005 to 2014 nine video-collages were launched and screened in 42 countries: AGRESSION, FEMALE, FRAGILITY, MALE, PREOCCUPATION, PROTEST, RESISTANCE, VITAL, WONDER. In 2014 FemLink-Art, in their fight for the equitable inclusion of women artists on the world stage, invited eight male artists to create videos for the video-collage 'Portraits of women visual artists'. This catalogue gives per video-collage a description of each video. It also includes biographies of the artists and a list of screenings and exhibitions per year.
