This episode revolves around an exhibition at de Appel and includes a performance programme, two symposia, and an insert by The Otolith Group in the exhibition ‘Just in Time’ at the Stedelijk Museum CS.
The exhibition seeks to articulate a historical context for the legacy of feminist thinking and the way it manifests itself in the materiality and language of visual art. Established in 1975, de Appel has a rich history of showing experimental art over the last thirty years and a continued interest in its programming now. Archival documentation exploring feminist legacies from the late 70s and 80s is presented alongside the exhibition, including the likes of Carolee Schneemann, Moniek Toebosch, Martha Wilson, Gina Pane, and Joan Jonas. These practices provide an interesting comparison to the vernacular used by artists today to think through ideas of agency, singularity, and political empowerment.
The exhibition includes works by Bless, Kate Davis, Pascale Gatzen & Myrza de Mynck, Karl Holmqvist, Jutta Koether, Claudia & Julia Müller, Isabel Nolan, Paulina Olowksa, Falke Pisano, Stefanie Seibold, Lucy Skaer, Frances Stark, Lily van der Stokker, Sue Tompkins, Haegue Yang, and Stefanie Seibold (archive).
A performance by Alexandra Bachzetsis and Lies Vanborm tales place on 16 November at Zonnehuis in Amsterdam.
