Antje Engelmann & Jordan Troeller
(Pro)creation
A performance-lecture by Antje Engelmann and Jordan Troeller
„My experience of reading, indeed of culture, was profoundly changed by having a child, in the sense that I found the concept of art and expression far more involving and necessary, far more human in its drive to bring forth and create, than I once did.“
Rachel Cusk, 2001
What are the conditions that make possible artistic creation? In which ways does the answer to that question change for mothers (or does it)? Does work in the studio have anything to do with the work that is parenting? Drawing on voices from three different generations of artist-mothers, this talk explores the doubleness of female creativity.
