Gender in Art

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the right to vote for the poor men and the women, I sat out to explore the question of equality in the art world on a historical context and up till present time.

I discovered that there is gender in many artworks. You can as well trace intellect, emotion, body, soul and spirit in different dosis in an artwork. Why shouldn’t sexuality be perceived? Although there are artists who have chosen on purpose or unconsciously to work with other aspects where gender isn´t evident.

At mange mennesker ikke ser eller opfatter kønsaspektet kan være et spørgsmål om fokus. Der er i DK sammenlignet med de øvrige skandinaviske lande tabuer og modstand omkring kønsdebat. Statistisk er ligestilling inden for mange erhverv og beslutningsbærende institutioner fraværende. Omend nyeste forskning viser at diversitet giver de bedste resultater. Derfor har jeg udført collager for at bevise at: Der kan være køn i kunst!
