f.a.s.t. femmes · arts · sciences · technologies

The exhibition consists of two main sections, historical and artistic, and addresses the issue of the invisibilisation of women in the history of these disciplines.

The historical section includes a chronology of remarkable women in the history of the arts and sciences, as well as portraits of women who have distinguished themselves in fields such as medicine, painting, literature or physics.

These portraits are accompanied by historical commentaries that address the question of the place of women in the evolution of Western society. The exhibition also looks at the mechanisms of invisibilisation of women in the history of visual arts and scientific research, as well as at Artscience, an emerging creative field.

In parallel, works and installations by emerging female contemporary artists based in the Brussels-Capital Region who integrate science and technology into their creative processes are presented.

Each of them explores different scientific topics or uses technology in their practice to create unique visual and interactive art experiences.
