March 8 World International Women's Day Exhibit
Hosted by the Foundation for Independent Art (Bağımsız Sanat Vakfı) this year’s March 8, International Women’s Day Exhibition will be in AKM Gallery between 8-27 March, with the theme of “Endless Energy, Mitochondrial Eve”!
The energy, that runs in the body of the child, passes from the mother; while we acknowledge the significance of women in the persevarence of life, we also know that tradition or modern, educated or unschooled, many societies disregard women’s rights and they are rendered subject to physical or psychological violence.
On the eve of many profound human, political, economic and environmental challenges we are to face this century, also those we have already inherited, the element that will determine our success as humanity and perhaps our permanence on the planet, will be pertinent to the fact that how much we include women: how much we put “her” in the centre of our lives, how much we value her virtues, how much we let her to be a dynamic part of or lives.
Calling from the intersection of Virginia Woolf’s word, “As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world” and the principle of universality, we aim at bringing universality into the view as a female phenomenon.
As the Foundation for Independent Art, just like every March 8, with the goal of promoting the positive, in the belief that the artist is the bearer of a guide’s message to all humanity, we are again on the road this year, with the slogan, “Endless Energy, Mitochondrial Eve”.
