  • Orshi Drozdik
    Press release ORSHI DRODZIK It’s All Over Now Baby Blue Opening Wednesday October 2th from 18.00 to 20.00 in presence of the artist Exhibition October 2 - November 27,2013 The Gandy gallery is pleased to announce the first solo exhibition by Orshi Drodzik at the gallery in Bratislava. The work of Orshi Drozdik (b,1946,Hungary) has played a significant role in the history of women’s art across the international arts scene and has greatly influenced a generation of artists to follow. Drozdik moved to Amsterdam in 1978, after graduating from the College of Fine Arts, in 1977 as a graphics major, and two years later she based herself in New York City. At present Drozdik works both in New York and Budapest, and is a professor at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. She has exhibited at many of the foremost galleries across Hungary and abroad, and articles assessing her shows have been published in numerous prestigious art journals. Yet, Drozdik has continually engaged with the contemporary art scene in Hungary. The 1998 exhibition, article, and textbook titled Strolling Brains, for instance, greatly contributed to the spread of feminism in the country. Drozdik began her career in tandem with the Hungarian post-conceptual movement of the 1970s. As a harbinger she created her own theoretical and critical point of view, which was unique in the seventies cultural environment of Budapest. In the 80s, at the time of her emigration, building upon of her 70s working methode, she embraced poststructuralist critical discourse, that helped her to develop, the installation series, Adventure in Technos Dystopium, a theoretical and visual deconstruction of scientific representation.

    FRIENDS, 2020 KATARZYNA KOZYRA FOUNDATION SUPPORT PROGRAM the present times are challenging for everybody. Even more so for women. The spread of the coronavirus and the worldwide economic crisis will make our work more difficult still. But we don’t give up. We will continue to fight in defence of the freedom of thought and gender equality. The Katarzyna Kozyra Foundation, as you know, has been created to support the work of female artists. Its many initiatives included, for example, a series of exhibitions of Women Commentators – a project which gave voice to young Russian and Ukrainian artists who live in countries where freedom of expression is not always allowed. One of the most recent investigations that the Foundation carried out, Little Chance to Advance, has revealed the huge underrepresentation of female teachers in Polish Art Academies. The Foundation is also currently working on numerous projects, which include an exhibition of Urszula Broll, a recently deceased artist who unfortunately did not live to see sufficient recognition for the important work of her life, as well as an archive of statements and works by female artists from the Visegrad Group. The recent cuts in the financing of NGO’s providing social and cultural support for women, make the raison d’ être of the Katarzyna Kozyra Foundation even more justified. It is why I ask you to join the group of the Foundation’s Friends and support us with a financial contribution so as to help the Foundation implement its program in support for women artists, consisting of research projects, exhibitions, book publications, seminars… I do not ask you for this commitment in exchange for nothing.

Desire is one of our most powerful driving forces. Our way of seeing and our art are formed by that and reflect on our desire” – said Orshi Drozdik in a recent interview concern- ing the topic of female identity and the use of her own body as a model and subject matter. Inevitably, she was the first Hungarian artist, who researched and introduced the female aspect in her work, and who intended to summarize the already existing but fragmented endeavours in this field, and who even edited a book (Walking Brains) with writings by leading authors of feminist theory. She always regarded her artistic program as a mission, which is rooted in her Hungarian experience but obviously became more conscious and sophisticated by the knowledge she gained while living abroad. This is the first time that we can follow Orshi Drozdik’s professional career, which began in the seventies with performances, photo series, graphic works, and continued with powerful figural paintings and installations. Even at this early stage, her obsession with the human body was evident. Later, while living in Amsterdam and New York, she began an investigation of such diverse subjects as the utopists of the French Enlightenment, the history of medicine, and the botanical taxonomic system of Carolus Linnaeus.

    GENDERED ARTISTIC POSITIONS AND SOCIAL VOICES: POLITICS, CINEMA, AND THE VISUAL ARTS IN STATE-SOCIALIST AND POST-SOCIALIST HUNGARY by Beáta Hock Submitted to the Department of Gender Studies, Central European University, Budapest In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Professor Susan Zimmermann CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2009 CEU eTD Collection DECLARATION I hereby declare that no parts of this thesis have been submitted towards a degree at any other institution other than CEU, nor, to my knowledge, does the thesis contain unreferenced material or ideas from other authors. Beáta Hock CEU eTD Collection CEU eTD Collection ABSTRACT The aim of this dissertation has been to explore what factors shaped artistic representations of women and the artistic agendas and self-positioning of individual women cultural producers in Hungary’s state-socialist and post-socialist periods. In using gender as an analytical category within the framework of a carefully conceptualized East/West comparison as well as a state- socialist/post-socialist comparison, the thesis historicizes and contextualizes gender in multidimensional ways. Positing that particular state formations and the dominant ideologies therein interpellate individuals in particular ways and thus might better enable certain subjectivites and constrain others, the thesis sets out to identify the kind of messages that the two different political systems in Hungary communicated to women in general through their political discourses, actual legislation, and social policies. Within this socio-historical framing, the research traces how female subject positions emerge in the respective periods, and turn into speaking positions with women cultural producers in the specific fields of cinema and the visual arts.

  • Queering Encounters with 'Identity'
    Space, Gender, and the Gaze in Literature and Art. Eds. Ágnes Zsófia Kovács and László B Sári. Newcastle Upon Thyne: Cambridge Scholars, 2017. 63-86. Anna Kérchy Queering the gaze in the museal space. Orshi Drozdik’s feminist (post)concept art Queering the gaze and feminist counter-spectacularity1 “Queering,” according to its OED definition, signifies “spoiling or ruining (an agreement, event, or situation)” but lately, in the past few decades, has come to denote an interpretive strategy, a gesture of applied deconstruction, used in literary and cultural criticism with the aim to reevaluate consensually set significations, canonized masternarratives, and normativized cultural scripts. Throughout a systematic “queering” process, fixed meanings can be challenged as illusory products of the Foucauldian ideological mechanisms of “truth-production” (Foucault 109), while a plurality of an alternative perspectives and reality-versions can be explored by focusing on artistic representations, discursive performances, and lived experiences of a more fluid spectrum of gender identities beyond the patriarchally prescribed, heteronormative reproductive sexual economy. The assumption is that the destabilization of ready-made truths about static gender identities and sexual orientations (with a fresh focus on the queer continuum and LGBT people’s lives) entails an overall revisionary process foregrounding the fallibility of any epistemological endeavor and the need for multifocal models for mapping reality. In our post-millennial age, “queering” has

  • Embodying the Real
    1 Embodying The Real This chapter is based on the exhibition, BODY presented at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney from 12th September to 16th November 1997. The theme both grows out of Experiencing The Real and re-contextualises it. BODY deliberately presented works which posed the viewer questions about their own experience in front of the works. Each room was thematically designed and included juxtapositions of works that were intended to stimulate unusual and productive associations to enhance the viewer’s experience of the individual works and the theme as a whole. It did not offer the comfort of a linear chronology although there was still a sense of historical development. Embodying The Real selectively examines some of these relationships in closer detail than was possible in the catalogue and with the benefit of hindsight. For a complete outline of the exhibition see the catalogue BODY.1 BODY represented a realist thread starting with Courbet and continuing through modern art to the present day. The process of selection brought other critical ideas into play such as: Realism versus Salon painting, empathy rather than voyeurism, gesture as a trace of the artist, art and life, and self-reflection. Alexandre Cabarel Gustave Courbet Portrait of Jo Birth of Venus 1863 Heffernan, the beautiful Irish Girl 1865 The most apparent distinction between Courbet’s Realism and Orientalism, or other forms of nineteenth-century Salon painting, is the choice of subject matter. Realism depicts everyday life rather than fantasies of far-away places and legendary histories. 1 BODY. 1997 Bookman Schwartz A division of Bookman Pty Ltd Melbourne.
