Genres de femmes

Women have been associated with so many different images.

Symbol of fertility, temptress, vector of dreams, ideal of beauty or purity, lover, whore, femme fatale, warrior woman, fragile woman, object woman…

All these visions that shimmer around the female symbol are numerous clichés that question our society.

 

 

 

An exhibition questioning our view on gender

In this project, we wanted to encourage artists to look at women in their artistic practice. Through the work of each artist, a new perspective would emerge: the perspective of the visitor. Being the heart of the project, the latter now has to observe. The beauty of art is that it gives rise to as many interpretations as there are ways of looking at it.

 

Exhibited artists

- Marie Aynaud, photographer. 

- Soaz (Ethel Coppietets), painter. 

- Jérôme Birti, painter.

- Julie Vanderhaeghen, illustrator. 

- Pauline Wathelet et Lucile Dizier, photographer and scenographer. 

- Whitney Orville, painter.
