Munich female artists' association
The Munich Artists' Association was founded in 1882 and officially existed until it was finally deleted from the association register in 1967.
history
According to the statutes, the primary goal was to “give women who work in arts and crafts the opportunity for mutual stimulation in their work and mutual support in their endeavors, to raise a sense and taste for the beautiful and to develop more and more artistic understanding among women. “The training took place at a so-called“ ladies academy ”of the association.
This private art academy was organized on the model of the Royal Bavarian Academy of the Arts . The pupils could choose their teachers themselves and paint in studios and in the great outdoors. Several corrections were made weekly. The Association of Women Artists in Munich, together with the teaching establishments in Karlsruhe, the Karlsruhe School of Painters , and the Association of Berlin Women Artists in Berlin were among the first training institutions founded for women in art that aspired to artistic professions. Gabriele Münter, for example, enrolled here because in Germany at the turn of the 20th century, access to the state - subsidized - academies was only allowed for men.
Against the background of the women's issue and the early women's movement that resulted from it , the Munich Artists' Association with its women's academy founded in 1884 (1884–1920) became a collective advocacy and professionalization institution for women in the arts and crafts in the 19th and early 20th centuries in Munich. According to the principle of collective self-help , women artists came together who had all experienced the inadequate training situation for women, especially in the field of high art. Among the founding members were Bertha von Tarnóczy (1846–1936), Clementine von Braunmühl (1833–1918), Sophie Dahn-Fries (1835–1898), Ilka von Fabrice (1846–1907), Olga Weiß (1835–1898) and Martha Giese (1860-1923).
