(Pipolitti Rist: A la belle etoile) For the first time in the world (or so they say and I guess it's true) a major museum will display an exhibition of women artists. This new presentation of the Centre Pompidou's collections will be entirely given over to the women artists from the 20th century to the present day.
The Centre Pompidou bills Elles@Centrepompidou as evidence of its commitment to women artists as it places them at the core of modern and contempoary art of the 20th and 21st centuries.
Key figures from the 20th century including Sonia Delaunay, Frida Kahlo, Dorothea Tanning, Joan Mitchell and Maria-Elena Vieira da Silva are exhibited along with today's great female creators some of whom, including Sophie Calle, Annette Messager and Louise Bourgeois have been featured recently in monographic exhibitions at the Centre Pompidou.
The programming cuts across disciplines to take a deeper look at the place occupied by women in the culture of the last century, from literature to history of thought, from dance to cinema.
