Lecture by Angelina Lison, better known to many as Tatzi. The Düsseldorf native combines tattoos, gallery business and art history studies.
FLINTA in art history - it's like "Where's Walter?", except that at least Walter is usually found.
Women, lesbians, inter, non-binary, trans and agender people? They appear in the classic art history books about as often as the great love on Tinder. Most of the time, FLINTA are at most allowed to hold the fruit bowl naked as a muse while the male artist celebrates himself.
But luckily there's also Artivism - the rebellious cousin of well-behaved art. Artivism is when art doesn't just hang pretty on the wall, but causes social stress. When art and activism come together, the picture on the wall suddenly becomes an announcement: Hello, there are still quite a few voices missing!
And now the eternal question: is all art by women automatically feminist art? Of course not! Otherwise every knitted sock would already be a feminist manifesto. Feminist art gets its hands dirty, digs into social wounds and asks stupid questions - regardless of who made it.
What should not be forgotten: A society's art is a pretty good indicator of how free and democratic it is. Where diversity, stubbornness and criticism have a place in art, society is usually more colorful and democratic. So art is not just decoration - it is a real indicator of freedom and diversity.
