The exhibition aims to contextualise Partum’s work – both in relation to her contemporaries (Joseph Beuys, George Maciunas, Katalin Ladik, VALIE EXPORT) and to artists today who are developing the strategies of feminist rebellion she initiated (Iwona Demko, Monika Drożyńska, Joanna Pawlik). The main themes include the body, touch, imprint, voice as a physical and political medium, criticism of patriarchy, écriture féminine, social engagement and opacity of communication.
Among them is the outstanding Croatian performance artist Vlasta Delimar with three works presented in the exhibition.
