DEEDS CALENDAR: InformELLE Künstlerinnen der 1950er/60er-Jahre – Emil Schumacher Museum (Hagen) | until 11.01.2025
From August 31, 2025, to January 11, 2026, the Emil Schumacher Museum honors “InformELLE Female Artists of the 1950s/60s” with an extensive special exhibition.
With its exhibition “InformELLE Künstlerinnen der 1950er/60er-Jahre” (Informal Female Artists of the 1950s/60s), the Emil Schumacher Museum has been presenting a long-overdue show since August 31, 2025, offering a new perspective on Informel art and showcasing female artists who have had a significant influence on this abstract movement. On display are over 90 major works by 14 painters and two sculptors. The aim is to expand the art-historical canon to include long-overlooked positions of female artists. The exhibition can be seen in Hagen until January 11, 2026.
