Zusammenfassung: | Re-writing art history or more correctly: adding chapters to Swedish art history.054 Swedish female artists & designers are featured ? some well-known as well as previously marginalized names, active from the previous century up to current day.0The selection comprises painting, sculpture, textile, crafts, drawings and graphic prints, photography and film. The artists will be presented based on the century they primarily were productive in, and selection is based on how their art reflects the prevailing social climate at the time.00? A little while ago, I was commissioned by a Norwegian art museum to propose names of Swedish artists to a Nordic art collection. To refresh my knowledge, I turned to art history. I got reminded of how flagrant the male predominance was in most descriptions, the ratio of male and female artists respectively was 95% male and 5% female, regardless of whether the book in question was by a male or female author. It was against this background the idea to an exhibition highlighting this disproportion came about, says Bo Nilsson, Director at Artipelag.00The term Signature Women is used to reflect the shift that has occurred over the past hundred years - female artists have gone from being expelled to artistic obscurity to today?s loftiness.00Exhibition: Artipelag, Gustavsberg, Sweden (08.03.-27.09.2020) |
