Laura Swale interviews curator of feminist art exhibition

It’s a man’s world “...but it would be nothing, nothing, without a woman or a girl” according to the lyrics of James Brown’s famous song. If so, what is it like to be a woman in this man’s world? Strangers in a Strange Land, a new multidisciplinary art exhibition opening this week at MUŻA, poses precisely this question. Curator Margerita Pulè talks to Laura Swale for The Sunday Times of Malta about the dynamic artists challenging social norms in this powerful show designed to stir things up and get people talking.
