Gender, Identity and Material for IWD

05.03.2017 | Art , Blog , Culture | BY:

To celebrate International Women’s Day, the Royal Academy will be hosting a series of events, talks and screenings throughout the week.

During screenings this weekend, the themes of gender, identity and material were explored through films by alumni and current graduates. Over the next few days, a diverse range of talks and tours will investigate what it means to be a women in today’s society, and how women have previously been portrayed in art across the world.  Highlights include the ‘Gendered Materials’ talk that will pose questions such as ‘what is the relationship between gender and materials in art practice?’ and ‘how do materials and scale used in art practice help to define gender?’
