  • Women's:Museum Curatorial Politics in Feminism, Education, History
    INTRODUCTION As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world. Wome n’s: Museum Virginia Woolf Curatorial Politics in Feminism, Feminism must itself be grasped as an interruption, a mode of transformation, questioning, challenging and opening up futures not yet imagined but to be constructed Education, History, and Art om a belief in its poetic virtuality. (…) Are feminism and the museum as we know it compatible at any level? Griselda Pollock Elke Krasny Too, whether acknowledged or not, feminism is structurally embedded in our deepest concepts of self and other; (…) Feminism is built into the ways in which we interpret and experience racial, ethnic, faith-based and other “identities” as we apprehend and relate to bodies in the world (including our own). Amelia Jones volume is a contribution to the emerging field of the contemporary This historiography and cartography of curatorial knowledge production. It initiates a dialogue between the history of women’s museums and the practices of politically conscious and activist feminist curatorial projects. Women’s museums and feminist curatorial projects alike can now look back at the historical developments that led to their inception. In the future, additional research on women’s museums and feminist curatorial projects will be necessary to trace in-depth the political agendas, aesthetic strategies, theories, ideas, ethics, and practices which shaped them in the past and continue to be part of their future direction and transformation. Women’s museums were first initiated in the 1980s. Their beginnings were strongly associated with the struggles and goals of the second-wave feminist movement.

  • LENTOS Kunstmuseum Linz the Naked
    LENTOS Kunstmuseum Linz Exposé The Naked Man (working title) 26 October 2012–17 February 2013 In the cultural public sphere, the viewer’s gaze takes the naked female body as a given. The erotically staged female nude has been taken for granted as a pictorial theme for centuries. The nude male body was assigned the role of the hero from ancient mythology or Christian salvation history. In mythological or Christian garb, the perfect male body stands for the whole of male ideality. Anton Kolig, Die neugierigen Modelle Oil on Canvas, 77 x 77 cm, Private property Courtesy Schütz Kunsthandel, Vienna With the first major crisis of male identity, formulated by Jacques le Rider, the view of the male nude changed. The artists of Viennese Modernism began to declare their own bodies a field of public action and experimentation. Starting with Egon Schiele, Richard Gerstl, Kolo Moser and Oskar Kokoschka, the naked body was divested of any role, became a means of self-questioning. As is still evident today, the demythologization of the naked body enables self-questioning situated in the field of tension between eroticism, provocation, vulnerability and critical analysis. Beginning with this caesura around 1900, the exhibition follows the disrobed male body through crises of identity and phases of confidence, traces attempts to deconstruct traditional images of masculinity and the search for alternatives, shows the confrontation with weakness and vulnerability, illustrates the gaze of desire and the erotic pose.

  • Linz Changes Groups
    #visitlinz EXPERIENCE THE FUTURE IN THE UNESCO City of Media Arts DISCOVER UNIQUE CULTURE on the Danube LINZ CHANGES GROUPS 2019 EDITION www.linztourismus.at/groups Incredibly contemporary, Upper Austria 1 In Linz on the Danube, culture meets vitality Linz on the Danube really is for anyone who is open to new experiences and lives in the here and now. The unique character of the city is just waiting to be discovered. The strength of the river and the easy-going nature of the city’s inhabitants exist side by side. The vibrant museums and the his- torical Old Town perfectly complement each other because of their differences. Almost as surreal are the boat trips along the harbour’s metre-high graffiti artworks or the industrial tours. These experiences, in all their diversity, encapsulate Linz. Just immersing yourself in this atmosphere once will be enough to have you coming back to the city for years to come. “Linz changes” is not just an empty phrase: the city in the centre of Upper Austria is always reinven- ting itself, while at the same time remaining authentic and looking towards the future. An important milestone in the city’s development was its designation as Capital of Culture 2009 – 2019 is the tenth anniversary of this event. Linz is also proud to hold the title of UNESCO City of Media Arts, something which visitors can really experience when they’re here. The fact that the city also enga- ges with the past in a contemporary manner and translates this into the present led the European Commission to further acknowledge Linz in 2018 with the “European Smart Tourism Award” in the “Cultural Heritage & Creativity” category.
