In a dialogue-based tour, art historian and ancient American specialist Carolina Pretell and cultural scientist Romina Tello invite you to focus on female perspectives in exhibits from the American, Oceanic, African, and Asian collections at the Ethnologisches Museum and the Museum f\u00fcr Asiatische Kunst:<\/p>\n

Throughout human history, women in different cultures have been understood as bearers of relationships, knowledge, and vitality. As goddesses, priestesses, healers, and midwives \u2014 as guardians of life \u2014 they shape the social, religious, and political fabric of their communities.<\/p>\n

How are these ideas reflected in cultural heritage? And how has the female body been interpreted as a source of life, power, and transformation?<\/p>\n

The exhibitions offer impressive examples of female creativity and its forms of expression in different times and cultures, which the mediators will guide you through.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
