Beschreibung
Constanze Ruhm sets out in search of a feminist way of seeing, aiming to shatter the male gaze and patriarchal image regime. In doing so she scrutinizes which connections to historic moments and figures from feminist movements are suited to being revisited and projected into the future. In twonewly devised video installations, a series of photos, the arranging of archival material, and the presentation of works by other feminist artists from the beginnings of the Italian womens movement in the 1970s Constanze Ruhm makes feminist art and film history visible in the mirror of contemporary art. After this shattering, the goal is to employ performative rituals, theatrical evocations, and ambiguous signals to piece the fragments of the puzzle together again, creating a different body and thus contributing to the rewriting of (feminist) history. Text: Annamaria Licciardello, Stella Rollig, Constanze Ruhm, Suzanne Santoro, Claudia Slanar.
