Art and history: Vienna celebrates women for international women's day!
As part of the International Women's Day on March 8, a strong sign of the visibility of Jewish women will be set in the Jewish Museum of Vienna. From March 7, all women have free admission. The shop window exhibition is particularly emphasized with works by the renowned photographer Ylla, who discovered her extraordinary skills in Paris and became famous for her animal photography. Unfortunately, in 1955 she had an ox race in India. Together with the Hungarian-Jewish photographer Ergy Landau, the exhibition shows the challenges and success of women in the early 20th century. The special leadership also gives space to the voices of otherwise unknown women, who also shaped Jewish history, such as wien.gv.at
celebrations in the Natural History Museum
At the same time, a special event program is also offered in the Natural History Museum (NHM) on Maria-Theresien-Platz for international Women's Day. Lectures, book presentations and tours will take place under the motto "Reframed: Women in focus" that illuminate the important role of women in the history of the museum. Particularly noteworthy is the temporary transformation of the imperial image of Franz Stephan I into a picture of women. Maria Theresa, the original client of the painting, is represented by fictional noble women who stand for the many women who have contributed to the development of the collections over the centuries. On March 8th there is also a lecture by Stefanie Jovanovic-Kruspel, which deals with the often overlooked influence of women on the history of history, as| Details | |
