Aretha Franklin, Maria Curie-Sklodowska, Wislawa Szymborska, Olga Boznanska if Emily Dickinson is an important form of permanently recorded in history, women who began their struggle for their own personality. Opposed to the existing norms and canons, initially rejected and ridiculed, entered the world of men's classes and rules.
Although there were areas of life where the fair sex at a rapid pace has become the new trend, a symbol new religions, the way to achieve was not always easy. The hardest part to play was a woman endowed with passion, "a typical male." One of them is a passion for sculpture. Men often would not let myself to think that women can be just as smart, capable and strong, and most importantly - independent from them. But this ability to make choices and an awareness of their value led the world in the present place.
Years 1864, 1936, 1966 became a breakthrough moment when the struggle was taken by dreams. Each one was different confessed the other values \u200b\u200bin a different way the world saw, but was associated them something very strong.
Camille - the name of the French having the same variation of female and male has become with the advent of the mid-nineteenth century, a symbol of struggle for freedom. At a time when it was unacceptable that some women had jobs as a child she decided to become a sculptor. Initially, the drive towards individuality laughed while posing models, co-workers mocked him, and almost the whole family could not in any way to understand However, the desire to achieve freedom and fulfillment has become stronger over all. Camille Claudel - quiet, peaceful and utterly committed to the creation, known to some only as muse, lover and student of the great Auguste Rodin, appears to modern man as an unpolished, samorodný diamond. As a child learned the tales of ghosts and phantoms blinded various forms of clay, which, along with gaining the skills of seeing and perceiving began to gain shape. At the age of less than 20 years became a student advisor and confidant of his master, who consulted with her almost every subject. Their works provide complementary intermingled. The most important was the dynamism of the face and body, an unusual amount of feeling. The resulting pure and passionate acts in which boundless devotion unites the art. Salon 1888 and its "Sacountala" brought change. Critics have almost unanimously agreed that the student surpassed the master. Clay as a captivating simplicity, truth and delicacy of a butterfly emerging ... embarks on an independent journey ..
Boulevard d'Itall together with the separation of artists is now home only to Camille works . These in turn are more lyrical and suffering, in which the sculptor talks about thankless role they have assigned her life. Wounded pride, unexpired feeling sorry for the unfulfilled motherhood and isolation, it's all bad effect on Camille, but made it no longer create. Art has become a refuge for her, clay furrows make it possible to show the inner feelings of anxiety and a variety of harassing a soul. "Prayer," "Waltz" and "Clotho", of very high admiration of the Octava Mirabeau clear whether the subsequent gainful work are testimony to the genius of women, the genius, who puts the twilight of the disease but also lack of understanding of the extraordinary artistic personality. Another
combat stereotypes take the twentieth century. Along with his early work in Paris alone 231 active sculptors, but how many of them actually managed not to lose your own personality? 60s gave birth to minimalism - fascinated by the art of industrial production. Eva Hesse being the only female representative of mainstream and one of the most influential artists of the postwar era, formed a slightly different piece. She left from the male, sculptural rigidity, did everything to humanize Minimalism. Dying at 34 of brain cancer, left behind an unfinished installations, drawings and unfinished in mid-sentence. I never wanted to play it just called a woman. Full strength, courage, working in an abandoned textile mill has attempted to experiment with the variety of materials, sample winning the fight against discrimination. Only a seemingly abstract systems are filled with life, tragedy mixed with comedy, eroticism of restraint. The pipes and wrapped the material Liquid Skin ephemeral piece of humanity, blood and life. Structures of wires, cables and masonite become a part of all of us. Works of Hesse, the search for an emotional relationship with the audience become the essence of postminimalizmu opening another door to the world of art.
Human unity through which we learn and experience the humanity appears also in the life-size statues Malviny Hoffman. Recreating the personality of individualism, social groups and different cultures creates a series of sculptures, whose performances did not go on one before, shapes the map of humanity. Knowledge of anthropology, remarkable technical skill and excellent anatomical detail found in the figures cast in bronze. On each face exudes joy of life, draw up or sorrows that Hoffman grabs if frozen in time. Previously, shapeless mass now feels alive, continues. Public opinion is often rejected the work and considered it too realistic, romantic, not understanding or not even wanting to understand ...
Each of these women have their own history, its own joys and sorrows, all she wanted to express in a slightly differently professed ideas and beliefs, but all the same were not fully understood, not appreciated, and in part rejected by the creative environment. Pokochały art, which gave up totally. Have taken the fight to the past and the stereotypes, the struggle, which devoted all his life. Tragedy and lack of understanding from their contemporaries, however, consisted in the fact that they were just women.
* Eva Hesse
