Miriam Cahn art at Palais de Tokyo
Miriam Cahn art anchors her practice in a commitment to social, political and environmental causes. Like many women artists and activists of the 60s and 70s, she always accorded a central role to the body in her work, often exploiting it as the object of abjection and vulnerability.
Miriam Cahn art – painting, drawing, writing, sculpture and photography, revolve around gender, violence, sex, power and family in particular, and evokes the complexity and interdependence of experience.
Miriam Cahn often challenges the conventions and prejudices that shape the points of view, questioning associations such as body and environment, masculine and feminine, pleasure and pain.
