The exhibition ‘The Woman Question 1550–2025’ challenges the belief that female artists were only exceptions before the 20th century. It shows that despite social constraints, women continued to create, using art to express their identity and consolidate their presence. The exhibition aims not only to showcase the diverse work of women but also to revise the canon of art history by giving a voice to artists who have been overlooked until now. The title refers to the old concept of the ‘woman question’, which preceded feminism and initiated the intellectual struggle for female subjectivity and equality.
The City of Women is a multi-voiced exhibition that showcases diverse approaches to art created by female artists. On the one hand, projects such as From the Guts use expressive, feminist artistic language, while on the other, Other Tomorrows challenge the traditional framework of feminism by exploring identities and communities beyond binary gender divisions. Alongside an academic look at the history of women's emancipation in communist Poland (Wiktoria Szczupacka), you also find a committed contemporary perspective, as in the works of Karolina Gembara, which focus on reproductive rights.
