How do revolutionary movements campaign for justice, freedom and democratic change?
The exhibition "Mona Hakimi-Schüler - Talking about the Revolution" addresses the role of women in society and poses questions about identity, power and resistance. With paintings, drawings, collages and installations, Mona Hakimi-Schüler (*1977 in Tehran, lives in Berlin) sheds light on the political situation in Iran and interweaves Persian literature and Iranian (art) history with her own biography. Her works thematize protest, violence and growing up in a patriarchal society. Above all, however, they tell poetic and detailed stories of resistance and the courage of people who fight against structures of injustice.
