Women in art across centuries

An exhibition of works by 17 women artists of the 20th and 21st centuries is presented for the first time in Cyprus at the XeniArtSpace gallery, which has just opened in Limassol.
The exhibition was officially opened by Minister of Communications Evi Tsolaki, in the presence of guests from the worlds of art, culture and the media.
Titled Channelled: Women in Art Across Centuries, the exhibition brings together historically significant figures of art in dialogue, bringing to the fore both established and emerging voices from the contemporary visual art scene.
It presents works from the personal collection of Xenia Kulbachevskaya, collector and founder of XeniArtSpace, with works by artists such as Olga de Amaral, Tracey Emin, Leonor Fini, Lidia Masterkova, Leiko Ikemura, Lynne Drexler, Sabine Moritz, Hayv Kahraman, Inka Essenhigh, Teresa Solar Abboud, Emily Kraus, Élise Peroi, Jess Allen, Georg Wilson, Pia Krajewski, Maro Gorky and Konstantina Krikzoni.
Seventeen distinct artistic paths, spanning different generations and cultural backgrounds, come together in a polyphonic presentation that preserves and highlights the unique identity of each artist.
The exhibition includes painting, photography, textile art, sculpture and installation, through which it completes a journey across two centuries of art, with works by artists from various cultural backgrounds and artistic practices.
The exhibition does not seek to define the female experience, nor does it try to identify a common 'female aesthetic'. The artists come from different countries, cultures and artistic traditions and do not belong to a single aesthetic framework. Their works come together precisely to highlight this diversity and the complexity of independent artistic voices, while maintaining the clear differences between them.
