Pioneering artists, romantic heroines, war photographers... Women in the spotlight in the spring exhibitions

2022-05-27T05:24:16.393Z


Figures from history, literature and mythology or free and independent artists of yesterday or today, they are celebrated by several museums in routes that are as original as they are fascinating.


Art takes on a feminine form in this spring's exhibitions.

For example in Blois, where the castle team honors Catherine de Médicis, Diane de Poitiers, Marguerite de Valois with the intention of wringing the necks of stubborn legends on their account.

Or in Paris, where the Museum of Romantic Life is interested in the heroines of History (Jeanne d'Arc, Marie Stuart…) or of literature (Ophélie, Desdémone, Juliette…).

No more question of classic muses here!

Ditto at the Luxembourg Museum where the "pioneers" (Suzanne Valadon, Marie Laurencin, etc.) display their independence.

Strong personalities are legion.

Even unknown.

As if to repair the injustices of fate without falling into blissful feminism.
