#PORQUENOMEVES
#PorQueNoMeVes is a project to expand and make visible art made by women organized by MIA ART COLLECTION, led by its Founder and Director, Alejandra Castro Rioseco, in collaboration with ARTEINFORMADO @arteinformado . More than 300 women of 23 nationalities responded to the online appeal and, for this March 8, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, we have selected 15 of them for this curatorial piece that is available now for you to see inside our MIA AnyWhere Virtual Museum.
During February 11 and 24, 2021, any female artist in the world, directly or through her gallery, was invited to participate for free with one of her works in #PorqueNoMeVes by MIA ART COLLECTION. The hashtag of the call presents a double reading: On the one hand, it works as a questioning or questioning of the invisibility of women in art and, at the same time, it acts as an exhortation or appeal to see the work of this women creators.
The call has brought together the work of more than 300 women from 23 countries (United States, Cuba, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador, Peru, United Kingdom, Holland, Germany, Ukraine, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, France, Italy, Portugal and Spain). Now, on the occasion of the International Women’s Day, we publish this curatorial piece with a selection of 15 of them, curated by Natalia Alonso Arduengo @natalia_alar
The exhibition is available NOW at the MIA Anywhere Virtual Museum, strongly committed to collecting and making the work of women artists visible and which currently brings together more than 1,000 works. During these days, we will present you the work of these women, but you can now go to miaanywhere.com as well as arteinformado.com to see this incredible collaboration.
Inside the ME hotel Dubai, designed by female architect Zaha Hadid, Alejandra Castro Rioseco hosted a breakfast meeting celebrating the role of women in the art world.
Every work of art demands from us thought, imagination, affection, challenging the viewer with different levels of demands.
We will be conducting an interview with all six Chechen artists from this week’s exhibition: @luisasoipi.jpg @asiya.sheshani @elonasaidoul @milana.alaro @asyaumarova @hedadaism alongside MIA Art Collection founder, Alejandra Castro and @noxchisurt founder and Mehkari curator, @anitayoloswagmoni .

Affective Alterations
Affective Alterations
What is the role of material culture in understanding the past, with a female point of view? ‘Affective alterations’ is the name of our new exhibition inside our MIA virtual museum that explores this question.
By Bastian Marin, August 1st
At the end of my studies in Art History and passing through the Prado Museum as my first work experience, I changed course and launched into entrepreneurship. Art never abandoned me, but enriched everything that started. Immersive experiences have always motivated me, organizing plastic art exhibitions accompanied by music programming, literary presentations, debates; in short, out-of-the-ordinary meetings where culture flows freely.

While the range of themes of “Female Lenses for Art Activism” reaches far and wide, the artists intersect in their multi-layered and multi-faceted artistic practice. The artists on show deal with pressing issues and offer a female lens with which to view these. Consciousness, ancestry, sustainability, mental health, technology, and energies are some of the topics the artists tackle. But while their topics hardly intersect, their savvy artistic skill does. All these women show their work in unique multi-disciplinary ways that combine and remix forms to create work that demands to be seen. The urgency of their work urges us to see these artists as activists, for they are both pushing forth their female lenses with pride while also tackling pressing issues we must acknowledge and observe in our contemporary society.
