About
‘The Female Nude: Ways of Seeing’ will focus on the representation of the female nude throughout art history, rethinking how the nude reinforces gender stereotypes, and it will raise questions of contemporary debate such as feminism, body image and identity.The exhibition complicates assumptions about the role of the nude by bringing into visual dialogue a combination of historic and contemporary prints. The hybrid and multiple nature of the print-medium provides different “ways of seeing”, challenging the outdated experience of this complex subject matter.
The exhibition will run from the 10 May – 26 May 2019 at the University of Kent’s Studio 3 Gallery.
‘The Female Nude: Ways of Seeing’ will be the 8th exhibition to run as part of the University of Kent’s award-winning module ‘Print Collecting and Curating’, organised solely by undergraduate students and will exhibit works from the Kent Print Collection, established in 2005.
