Vernissage Radical Software
Deze inhoud is helaas niet in het Nederlands beschikbaar.Mudam Luxembourg – Musée d'Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean is pleased to invite you to the opening of Radical Software: Women, Art & Computing 1960–1991.
Radical Software surveys the history of digital art from a feminist perspective, focusing on women who worked with computers as a tool or subject and artists who worked in an inherently computational way.

During these three decades the computer migrated from the laboratory to private, domestic space. A principally analogue exhibition about digital art, the works on display precede the rise of the World Wide Web and the proliferation of digital information and images that ensued and dramatically reshaped the way artists work to this day. This same period is also referred to as the second wave of feminism, an era that popularised an (albeit incomplete) idea of gender equality.
.The exhibition is organised by Mudam Luxembourg and Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna.
