With around 120 works _ paintings, installations, performances, sculptures and films_ by some 40 female artists, the exhibition highlights the complex and heterogeneous contribution of women artists to the history of Pop Art. From the very beginning, as feminist pioneers, self-confident and expressive female Pop artists shaped this art movement and questioned the traditional role of woman and muse. They worked autobiographically, often across genres as well as in different media, combining the bold aesthetics of a brave new world of commodities with the self-confident adoption of the new synthetic materials and technologies.
