Changes

I have started to introduce some changes to the New Art blog's appearance. As you can see, so far it's very small-scale (strategic ;)) : the page now has a favicon (tiny logo next to the address). The little image has to do both with contemporary art and with Portugal. The logo in the top right corner - the "network" - is also about to be replaced. I will be experimenting with some new images, and writing about the proposed changes. I would like to know your opinion!

Woman

The internet seems to be working particularly well for feminist art, or rather, for art centered on women. Here is another example: a simple "game" by Juliet Davis, called Pieces of Herself, where we compose a woman by exploring her surroundings and literally inputting the elements we choose on the anonymous figure. And they jump and dance and talk and ring, and all this inside of the woman we create. "You really should try and integrate all those roles into one", said one of the objects I selected.
Is this the specificity of a woman? Or is it just a person, and the gender/sex is irrelevant...?
Why is it a woman? What makes this experience unique for women?
