Abstract

The exhibition Femme Fatale: Blick-Macht-Gender ran from 9 December 2022 to 10 April 2023 at the Hamburg Kunsthalle, offering a rich collection of works from the Pre-Raphaelites to contemporary photographers. The exhibition promised a problematisation of the figure of the femme fatale , particularly in the light of the #Metoo movement. While this was clearly successful, other aspects of this complex artistic figure were left unexplored by the curation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
