This exhibition De Nieuwe Vrouw (The New Woman), tells the story of the changing social positions of women, reflected in Dutch art of the twentieth century. In the spotlight are women who take to the barricade, enter new fields of work, create masterpieces, light up a cigarette or jump on a bicycle. Women challenge ideas of what is typically ‘feminine' or 'masculine,' ideas that break with conventions and push boundaries. Initially, we didn’t like the title, but after finding out that The New Woman was meant as an insult in the 30s, we understood that this exhibition wanted to tell more than just a pretty picture.
