In the “New Insights” tours, artists guide visitors to their works in the exhibition Soft Power, providing insights into their creative processes and discussing the thematic links between art and society with experts. The discussion tours will be moderated by exhibition curator Daniel Milnes.
The artist Gabriele Stötzer was part of a non-conformist movement in the GDR and created artwork in this environment that broke with the rules of the GDR's political and artistic system. In doing so, she denounced the patriarchal structures around her.
Together with Monique Förster, director of the Erfurt Kunsthaus and co-founder of the Künstlerinnengruppe Erfurt, the two will guide visitors through Stötzer's works in the exhibition and discuss Erfurt's subculture in the GDR.
