"Women’s Display. Female Architects and Designers Planning Exhibitions"

In relation to the newly started research project on SAFFA 1958 (Swiss National Science Foundation) – the Swiss Exhibition on Women’s Work initiated, designed and planned by a group of professional women – the workshop intends to examine the conceptual work, as well as the design and plans of women in the production of exhibitions on various scales. The examined examples will range from the master plans of the exhibition area to the architecture of the exhibition buildings and the scenography of the display.

We welcome all contributions enlarging and reframing the topic, including papers as well as short films, photographic essays, or any other means of communicating ideas about women’s exhibitionary practices. We will draw upon these contributions to inform our roundtable discussion. We also invite group members who have either experience or special knowledge about exhibition making to submit a short statement about why they would like to participate in the roundtable discussion, and will strive to accommodate such participants as well.
