Ewa Partum is one of Poland’s most prominent conceptual artists from the turn of the 1960s and 70s, and was a forerunner of feminist art in Poland. She has created performances, activities in public space, experimental films, and visual poetry. “My Problem Is a Problem of a Woman”, performance show presented at the ArtForum Gallery, depicts the aging process of half of the artist’s body that goes on simultaneously along with the work of the make-up artists which proceeds as the audience watches. It is accompanied with comments of Valie Export, as well as of the artist herself. Ewa Partum recalls: On the floor I have written: “a male artist has no biography”. However, a female artist has one. It is important if she is young or old.”
