Gender Equality for Women Exhibit Venice Biennale
Donation protected
Judith Unger's "Original Sculpture & Drawings Celebrating Strong Women & Gender Equality" Exhibit Venice, Italy Biennale 2019.
This is MYSTORY, HERSTORY.
My sculpture told my story before I recognized it myself.
Years ago I sculpted a faceless woman breaking free, defending herself with threatening claws.
Then a crouching angel protecting herself under her wings.
I no longer need wings to protect me, to soar.
This is MY Journey from Violence, Oppression to Shining Strength.
I am Free.
I SHINE. A STRONG WOMAN. MY ART SHINES
I give this gift to others “to give heart”, to EN COURAGE.
“SHINE”
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to Shine.
As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.” excerpt Marienne Williamson

EXHIBIT TO PROMOTE" STRONG WOMEN & GENDER EQUALITY " at the 2019 Venice, Italy Biennale,
"A Changing Narrative of Female Existence Over Time”
“Leda” is part of a series of my sculptures entitled Mythological Images, my revision of the Greek Myth “Leda and the Swan”.
"A sudden blow: the great wings beating still
Above the staggering girl, her thighs caressed
By the dark webs, her nape caught in his bill,
He holds her helpless breast upon his breast."
Excerpt from Leda and the Swan by W.B. Yeats
My rendering of this myth brings the legend into today’s context. It offers a changing narrative of female existence over time. Unlike the story of the ancient Greek Myth, this sculpture “Leda and the Swan” transforms herself into a powerful swan, who can fight off her attacker and protect herself. My version of Leda pushes towards GENDER EQUALITY.
Established in 1895,it is the oldest contemporary Art Biennale.
In 1948 The Biennale held a major exhibition with the Impressionists, Chagall, Klee, Braque, Delvaux, Ensor, and Magritte, as well as a retrospective of Picasso's work.
Peggy Guggenheim was invited to exhibit her famous New York collection.
Picasso exhibited here in 1948.
