Feminine Painting – It's a Masculine Thing!

A group exhibition of local and international artists where we blend high theory with soup, cases of sexism and misogyny of the nineties' with the ones from the present, feminist utopias with daily life, and ballast carpet with lace and satin.

When five years ago artist Martina Drozd Smutná asked what the label 'feminine painting' actually meant, she hoped a PhD at the mighty Academy of Fine Arts in Prague would help her understand. In this exhibition we share some of the ripest fruits of her inquiry but also – and more importantly – we comment on the wider conditions in which this construct occurred. We ask through artworks and art practice what we can do to embody a more equal and just world and celebrate those whose work has been generating such change.
