The Museum of Contemporary Art of Crete presents

"Pro Femina,"

a powerful exhibition showcasing remarkable works by women artists.

Opening on Friday, November 15 at 7:00 PM, this exhibition continues our commitment to exploring women's voices in contemporary art.

Taking its name from Carolyn Kizer's iconic poem, "Pro Femina" (meaning "for woman" in Latin) brings together diverse artworks from our Permanent Collection.

Curated by Kostis Christidis, the exhibition examines the complex experiences of being a woman in today's world, addressing both challenges and triumphs.

In this compelling collection, visitors will discover artworks that speak to various aspects of female identity.

From bold expressions of resistance to intimate explorations of emotional landscapes, each piece contributes to a broader dialogue about women's roles in society.

The artists tackle important themes such as gender equality, social expectations, and personal transformation through different artistic approaches and mediums.
