When we think about leader and leadership, we don’t spontaneously think about women. Why is that? In this conference, we will see how history and the way it has been taught to us, made women invisible. It is a challenge to change our narratives to turn women into the leaders they have always been. Artists have the power to make unconscious laws visible. Their work is to show, to express, to put right in front of our eyes what has to be seen. By studying their process to turn ideas into matter, we will deeply understand how women leadership is way different from what we have been educated to believe. Is there a common ground in the leadership of women artists ?
The French sculptor Louise Bourgeois said that « as a woman artist, she always felt that she was invading a men's territory. » She had to create her own. Leadership for women often means creating a new approach, a new territory where men never set foot. Abramovic with performance, Orlan with body art, Nikki de Saint Phalle with her beautiful Tarot garden, Prune Nourry with her scientific process and many others, will guide us through that exploration.
