About Me – About You

24/2 – 13/3 2022

To celebrate International Women’s Day 2022, the euregional artists’ group dreieck.triangle.driehoek presents a group show at 3 different locations on the theme with the title “about me – about you“.

At our location, PontArte, we have also asked our women’artists to participate and work with this theme.

This title can be interpreted broadly.  It is about women reflecting on their situations and experiences, about problems, successes, crises, but also about equal opportunities, independence, being able to make their own choices, autonomy, etc.

But it is also about the woman/me and the man/you, about relationships, togetherness, about with or against each other, power and injustice and the question of whether gender differences can be bridged in the future. This brings the Dutch theme for this International Women’s Day into the picture: emancipation is something you do together.

The artists of dreieck.triangle.driehoek and all other participating artists also have to deal with this theme in their lives and highlight it from different perspectives in their art, in paintings and sculptures, in collages, 3D objects, textiles or graphic work. And they show what they are thinking about: me of you and everything in between.
