The exhibition double_bind shows works by 26 artists using the genres video, photography, performance and installation. 26 women artists investigate their own double roles as artists and mothers. Their works convey some very personal aspects of the theme art – children – career, but also reveal the way in which society treats working mothers. How do women artists combine art, children and career? How does the art business regard women artists who have children? What has altered during the last 20 years? The artists will answer these and other questions.
Part of the exhibition’s concept is a questionnaire among those with children who actively participate in the art business; information about their working situations, incomes and careers has been collected.
