"At Her Age: Women, Age & Sex" Exhibition
A.I.R. Gallery
This event has ended.
A.I.R. Gallery announces CURRENTS, a timely and innovative exhibition series. Each year the CURRENTS exhibit addresses an issue that warrants expanded critical attention in the art world. A.I.R. invites established and
non-traditional curators (artists, activists, writers, poets) to select the works to be exhibited with the theme designed as a collaboration between the curator and the gallery.
This new opportunity is open to all self-identified women artists worldwide and is curated through an open call and through invitations by the curator.
For the inaugural CURRENTS exhibit, Martha Wilson has curated, At Her Age an exhibit on Women, Age and Sex.
At Her Age examines how women at any period in their life, old or young, view their changing bodies. The exhibition addresses the questions: "How does age affect experiencing one's sexual/sensual life?" and "How does age impact one's evolving personal and social relationships?"
While some may perceive older women as inconsequential or asexual, they personally may experience increasing knowledge of themselves. Younger women may experience curiosity/fear/pleasure about the changes in their own bodies due to age.
