Ilse Henin
New in the Collection of Museum Kunstpalast, Düsseldorf
26 October 2023

Die unhintergehbare Verflechtung aller Leben at Kunsthalle Düsseldorf
25 May 2023
Starting from more than 70 presented works by Ilse Henin, the exhibition weaves a net to the five younger, contemporary positions. The works are united by the interweaving of supposedly classical motifs read as feminine, but they have all developed them into completely different subjects.
"Femininity" as a motif is placed in a contemporary context. The woman is no longer a beautiful accessory or projection surface of the male gaze, but the main figure and identity bearer of the work. Women, as individual figures, in groups or as part of a family or tribe, stand up for themselves and for all they represent. They are strong, self-determined heroes of a new narrative of femininity, aware of their position. At the same time, classical notions of femininity and masculinity are questioned.
