'GROW IT, SHOW IT! A look at hair from Diane Arbus to TikTok', Museum Folkwang, Essen (Group Show)
September 13, 2024 – January 12, 2025

Hairstyles and hair define how we see ourselves or how we want to be seen by others. The way we present or conceal head hair, underarm hair, leg hair, chest hair, whiskers or pubic hair can indicate ethnic, cultural and religious origins and thus also has to do with questions of identity.

 

In a wide range of positions, Leyla Yenirce's work Nacht. Schlaf. Die Sterne., 2021 will be exhibited along other historical and contemporary works by photographers and artists such as Diane Arbus, Julia Margaret Cameron, Anouk Kruithof, J. D. Okhai Ojeikere, August Sander and Cindy Sherman.
