Women in art: from invisibility to recognition

Wednesday, November 25
From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Maricel Museum

On the occasion of 25-N, International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, the Sitges Museums propose a day to claim the role of women in art and culture and denounce one of the most persistent historical inequalities: the invisibility of women artists and the exclusion of their contributions from official accounts of the history of art.

The Maricel Museum will host a space of calm in the Mirador, accompanied by music by female composers from different eras, and the screening of the virtual exhibition En Clau de Dona in the Sala Gòtica. A proposal that invites reflection, listening and the recovery of voices and trajectories that are often silenced, to move towards a more just and egalitarian cultural memory.

Making women artists visible is also a way to combat inequalities and build a more just and egalitarian culture.
