The exhibition Feminist Avant-Garde. Works from the VERBUND COLLECTION, Vienna presents the radical feminist art movement of the 1970s. The international women artists share a collective consciousness which, for the first time in art history, completely re-evaluates the "image of the woman" and turns to new forms of expression such as photography, performance, film and video. Their works are provocative, poetic and ironic.
Gabriele Schor, founding director of the VERBUND COLLECTION, coined the term "feminist avant-garde" for this feminist art movement to emphasize the pioneering work of these artists. The women called for issues such as pregnancy, marriage, the right to abortion, equal pay for equal work and violence against women to be made public. Issues that are still relevant today.
