Nouchka van Brakel’s fictional portrait of Aletta Jacobs, the first female doctor in the Netherlands and an icon of the first wave of feminism. Van Brakel: “I always think histories consisting of straight facts are always really boring. A lively, contemporary ‘her-story’ seemed way more fascinating to me".
During the first week of June, Eye will screen the VR experience Walzer by Frieda Gustavs and Leo Erken: a journey through a landscape consisting of thousands of photographs from the first wave of feminism (1850 - 1940).
