Curator: Gloria Aino Grzywatz
ONE TO ONE exhibition series
PRISKA PASQUER Virtual Gallery Space
Opening April 15, 7 pm CET
Peer to space’s curator Gloria Aino Grzywatz curates the solo show SHOW ME YOUR SHEROES of the artist Zohar Fraiman. The exhibition takes place at PRISKA PASQUER’s virtual gallery space as a part of the ONE TO ONE exhibition series from April 15 to May 13, 2021, followed by a solo exhibition at the gallery’s premises in Cologne, Germany later this year.
The exhibition Show Me Your Sheroes creates a surreal, glowing world of color and form, establishing a dialogue with Zohar Fraiman's colorful works. Using humor, Fraiman questions the practice of internet-based self-staging and criticizes exaggerated and distorted ways of expressing both gender and the self within image-based networks and social platforms. In her works, the artist refers to animated films and TV series like those created by Disney like Snow White and Alice in Wonderland which show manufactured images of women. The works in this exhibition, as well as the exhibition title, is sparked by the Warren Buffet quote: „Tell me who your heroes are, and I'll tell you how you're going to turn out“. How do representations of femininity in digital space shape our understanding of gender? How can we free ourselves from stereotypical thought patterns?
