To accompany the current exhibition of the Feminist Art Prize 2022, IKOB organizes an evening game session around the theme of women in the art world, in collaboration with the book club PULVA from Eupen that explores feminist topics.

From artists to museum directors - how do women manage to find their place in the art world? Addressing the issue of under-representation of women in the art world, the board game "Art & My Career" by artist Olivia Hernaïz, based on hundred of testimonies, features different careers in the art world. From artist to museum curator, players are invited to put themselves in their shoes in order to better understand their struggle. The game session will be led by mediators.

The exhibition will be open during the game session and can be visited throughout the evening.

Dialogue is at the centre of the work of Olivia Hernaïz (born 1985, lives and works in Brussels). Her projects are excuses to enter into conversation with others. In 2016, she earned an MFA at Goldsmiths University of London. Winner of the 'Art Contest' supported by the Boghossian Foundation in 2016, she is currently a visiting artist at HISK in Gand. Her recent exhibitions include: 'La Eterna Juventud', Mu.ZEE, Ostend (2021), ' 'Inside Out', Fine Art Museum of Belgium, Brussels (2020), 'To Thomas', Bourges (2020), 'All About You', The Koppel Project, London (2019), 'Push Your Luck', Iceland, Brussels (2019), Moscow International Biennale for Young Art, Moscow (2018); 'As Long as the Sun Follows its Course', Ixelles Museum, Brussels (2017).
