Painting women in Paris - Malweiber in Paris

There has been an interesting exhibition on female painters during the end of the 19th century. At that time, women were not allowed to fully study arts in Germany. To learn more, some went to the much more liberal Paris and got their training both in the Academies and with french painters like Matisse.
Today, most have been forgotten by the art circles, therefore the exhibition to enhance awareness of what those women achieved.

Vor kurzem war eine Ausstellung im Edwin-Scharff-Haus über die sogennanten Malweiber am Ende des 19ten Jahrhunderts. Zu dieser Zeit war es Frauen in Deutschland noch nicht erlaubt, wie Männer Kunst zu studieren. Um mehr zu lernen, gingen einige in das deutlich liberalere Paris und erhielten dort ihre Ausbildung sowohl an der dortigen Akademie wie auch von französichen Künstlern wie Matisse. Heute sind die meisten dieser Künstlerinnen vergessen, deshalb die Ausstellung um die Werke dieser Frauene wieder ins Bewusstsein zu bringen.
