Do women have to be naked to get into a museum? The Guerrilla Girls posed this ironic question back in 1989, and the proportion of art by women in German museums is still poor today.
In the context of the special exhibition "KOLLWITZ NEU SEHEN", the feminist artists' collective at the Kollwitz Museum Cologne talks about art, activism and the fight against discrimination in the art world.
Guerrilla Girls are an anonymous US-American group of artists that was founded in 1985 and has been drawing attention to the fact that women and non-white people are often excluded from the art and culture industry with their posters, postcards and public actions ever since. Its members use pseudonyms such as Frida Kahlo, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Eva Hesse - or Käthe Kollwitz.
