In this series we set out in search of pioneering women* in art whose works are currently on view at the various locations of the Belvedere. The British artist Helen Chadwick (1953–1996) explores identities and norms in her works. The installation Ego Geometria Sum (1982/83) refers, in ten sculptures, to important moments in Chadwick's life. The surfaces of the geometric sculptures are exposed with photographs of the artist's naked, adult body and link personal experiences with social attributions.With art mediator Angelika Katzlberger.
The title Warum malt sie keine Blumen? is borrowed from the pamphlet of the same name by Renate Bertlmann from 1973. In it, Bertlmann calls for the thematic and medial expansion of art by women.
