Annegret Soltau: Uncensored. A retrospective

With her independent, radically feminist visual language, Annegret Soltau is one of the most important representatives of staged photography and body art in the 1970s and 1980s.

Social norms, body politics and female identity are central themes in her works. Her artistic exploration of pregnancy, motherhood and family in the 1970s and 1980s, in which she exposes complex emotional worlds, inner conflicts and emotional states, is unique.

The retrospective, conceived by the Städel Museum, Frankfurt, curated by Svenja Grosser, puts her oeuvre in the right light, establishes the artist as an important voice in contemporary art and shows how relevant her works have remained over time.
