Summary
Founded in 1984 by several women allied with Gabriele Stötzer, the Erfurt Women's Artists' Group pursued an artistic vision in radical opposition to the strictures of everyday life in teh GDR and contributed in various ways to shaping the period following the fall of the Berlin Wall. Their exploration of female self-empowerment, collective action, and cultural criticism -- still highly relevant today -- is cogently manifested in Super 8 films, images, life performances, fashion-object shows, and texts. Subversive, witty, sustained by a clear sense of personal freedom, their art works provide insight into a little-known feminist subculture in the GDR.
