As a central figure of the Austrian feminist avant-garde, Renate Bertlmann subverts social stereotypes of gender, femininity, and masculinity. Her radical and ironically provocative works map the ambivalent relationship between pleasure and pain, anger and tenderness, in a manner as idiosyncratic as it is unsparing. In the installation Washing Day, Bertlmann’s explorations of soft forms and flexible materials in combination with her ongoing interest in skin as a vulnerable agent of touch find spatial expression. Dozens of objects, cast by the artist from liquid natural latex using plaster molds, are hung from stretched clotheslines like pieces of laundry. Many of these latex skins feature characteristic protrusions and inversions that evoke fingers, mouths, nipples, phalluses, condoms, or vulvas, while nevertheless resisting any clear attribution of gender.Object art1237390296987Belvedere 21image/jpegFoto: Johannes Stoll / Belvedere, Wienhttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/166773/fullHausarbeit verrichtenfoamhanging the wash to dryhttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-96987/manifest
