Manifest Yourself!

Berlin

Manifest yourself! – loud & juicy – aims to shine a spotlight on international feminist resistance in art and beyond roughly and not academically from the Suffragettes to the present. It reflects its dazzling and also contradictory manifesto culture, combining not only artistic works in various media and forms but also historical documents, film/music clips and text/research material. The exhibition aims to make visible the aesthetic and linguistic codes of feminist resistance that developed over the last half century. Emphasis also is on how strongly feminism has expanded, diversified and self-critically questioned itself in recent decades. A focus is therefore on artistic works that deal with intersectional, cyber- and ecofeminist concerns. Participating artists will include amongst others Laurie Anderson, Ouassila Arras, Lynda Benglis, Monica Bonvicini, Andrea Bowers, Burchill/McCamley, Valie Export, Ulrike Flaig, Ceal Floyer, FRZNTE, Regina José Galindo, Guerilla Girls, Signe Pierce, Marinella Senatore, VNS Matrix, and Billie Zangewa. Events and collaborations with Berlin-based feminist groups are planned; a publication (fanzine) will accompany the exhibition.
