FUSION CUISINE

Fusion Cuisine attempts to dispel some of the myths and stereotypes surrounding women’s art practice, deconstruct feminist clichés and disrupt stereotypical images of womanhood and established notions of what constitutes ‘femininity’. It offers a non-dogmatic and non-didactic glimpse into the diverse and polymorphous nature of contemporary art being made by women today. Though the work in the exhibition addresses disparate concerns, there is also an underlying awareness of the female condition. It presents a varied cross section of art being made by different women from different cultures and backgrounds. History, memory, politics, questions of gender and identity, religion and culture are all areas that are explored.

Artists include: Janine Antoni, Cosima von Bonin, Monica Bonvicini, Tania Bruguera, Lee Bul, Patty Chang, Camilla Dahl, Tracey Emin, Sylvie Fleury, Jitka Hanzlova, Hilary Harkness, Eliza Jackson, Liza Lou, Elahe Massumi, Despina Meimaroglou, Catherine Opie, Maria Papadimitriou, Kiki Seror, Fatimah Tuggar, Lina Theodorou and Lisa Yuskavage.
