In resonance with the monographic exhibitions of the artists Hsia-Fei Chang, Julia Cottin and Tina Gillen, the Konschthal Esch invites Nina Volz (Head of International Development) for a presentation of AWARE: Archives of Women Artists, Research & Exhibitions, and of the mechanisms put in place since 2014 by the association to support established and emerging women artists in their production, dissemination and recognition in the history of art throughout the world.
About AWARE: Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions
AWARE: Archives of Women Artists, Research & Exhibitions is a non-profit organisation co-founded by art historian Camille Morineau in 2014 and works to make visible women artists of the 19th and 20th centuries by producing and posting free, fully bilingual (French/English) content about their work on its website. This online resource currently has over 1000 biographical texts and over 75,000 visits per month. AWARE represents a diversity of voices with texts written by 450 researchers, curators, feminist art historians, art critics and activists from around the world. In order to widely disseminate research on women artists, AWARE also organises colloquia, roundtables and seminars in partnership with institutions, universities, museums and other independent structures internationally, and edits its own publications. AWARE is located in the Villa Vassilieff (in the 15th arrondissement of Paris), where the artist Marie Vassilieff had her studio in the 1910s. In this symbolically important space, AWARE has set up a research centre entirely dedicated to women artists and feminist art, and hosts events, exchanges/discussions and school workshops.
The presentation will be followed by a conversation between Nina Volz (AWARE) Charlotte Masse (curator at Konschthal) and Hsia-Fei Chang (artist).
Speakers: Nina Volz (AWARE), Charlotte Masse (curator at Konschthal) and Hsia-Fei Chang (artist).
