Visit the first exhibition of HERSTORYMUSEUM

Apr 28, 2018

HERSTORYMUSEUM was created by artist María María Acha-Kutscher as a virtual museum in 2017. Now the museum opened the first exhibition. We congratulate!

OTHERNESS is the first online exhibition of HERSTORYMUSEUM showing special visions from the past centuries of representations of women from colonized, groups created by female artists from dominant groups, where –without discarding the contradictions– the presence of the Otherness is not so evident, perhaps because they have been conceived by women. As Simone de Beauvoir argued: The Other of Man is Woman (1952).
