Radical! Women Artists and Modernisms 1910-1950

The catalogue examine the relationship between gender, art and Modernism. It will focus on the question of what kinds of stylistic and visual imagery were developed by women artists in response to the social change, political upheaval and technical innovations of the rst half of the last century. The works in
the exhibition can be considered as not only bearing witness to rapidly advancing industrialisation, urbanisation and technological development but also re ecting the complexity and contradictions that came with emancipation and evolving gender roles.
