It is a breath of fresh air in all four houses of the British Tate Gallery blows are guided, since then, three of them women. Now the galleries ahead in the equality of man and woman in the arts: The Mission is to reach contemporary exhibitions, a balanced gender ratio.

And it is more than that, the exhibitions are also meant to demonstrate the diversity of art from all continents. Openness to the world, especially in Brexit-times, wants to prove to Maria Balshaw, who was appointed as a cultural scientist two years ago, the first female Director in the 120-year history of the prestigious Tate art museums.

Sixty years of modern art by women

With her latest project she leads Tate Britain is making headlines In the mother house of the group where British art from 1500 to today is shown to be suspended in the section of Contemporary art of the last sixty years, all of the Work of male artists.

Diversity and internationality are the hallmarks of “Britishness”. Among others, was to recognize in the works of Video and installation artist Susan Hiller and the British-Palestinian Mona Hatoum, in the paintings of the German artist Tomma Abts in 2006 the Turner prize gained, and in the Work of Bridget Riley, Rachel Whiteread or Sarah Lucas.

The history of art to rewrite a short time

Also, the dialogue between older and younger generations of artists, questions of “political geography”, identity, color, and gender are addressed. The British afro-Caribbean artist Sonia Boyce shows a series of photographs in which puzzled passers-by wig react in different ways to the establishment of the Afro -.

Bridget Riley created between 1980 and ’85, a series of strip paintings, including the “Achæan” (1981)

For 2020, the Tate Britain forth plans we plan to transfer your entire collection “from below”, the image texts are re-written and presented so far, little attention to art, more, announces Schlieker. It was not only the colonial heritage of the collection critically, but also issues such as Gender and skin color will be re-evaluated. “We are trying everything to shake up, and the art of rewriting history to a large extent.”

Solo shows for artists

In the Tate Modern, the house for Modern art, followed Director Frances Morris, the same principle of equality with a series of Solo shows for artists – Anni Albers, until Dora Maar, and Dorothea Tanning. Not without Pride it is informed in the Tate that the prestigious Turner art prize in the past eight years, six times was awarded to an artist. “We live in a positive and fertile time for the woman of art,” says Maria Balshaw with Pride.
