From 21 to 23 November, the project The Curatorial Collection – Empowering Women Through Art will be hosted at the Kunsthaus. A three-day charity exhibition will present works by both internationally established and emerging female artists. With each sold work, women in crisis and conflict zones are supported through the aid organization Women for Women International (WfWi) – while the participating artists also benefit directly from the proceeds. In this way, the project connects artistic practice with social engagement.
Complementing the exhibition, Caroline Koch, Managing Director of Women for Women Germany, will be providing concrete insights into the work of the organisation on Saturday, 22 November, starting at 3 pm, together with guests from the areas of operation. On Sunday, 23 November, at 3 pm, the project initiators will guide visitors through the exhibition, introduce the participating artists and open up a space for reflection and exchange.
The Curatorial Collection – Empowering Women Through Art is initiated and realized by Isa Katharina Hänsel, Corinna Koch, and Stefanie Busold.
