The Goldrausch Künstlerinnenprojekt project invites 15 FLINTA* artists to take part in its year-long program that runs from January to December 2026. Successful applicants will participate in weekly as well as intensive courses that include practical exercises and seminars. The project was founded in 1989 by the Goldrausch Frauennetzwerk Berlin e.V. in an attempt to counteract institutional disadvantages faced by women artists by helping them forge career paths, develop practical knowledge and present their works publicly.
Faye Wei Wei is currently attending the MA in Fine Arts of Yale (USA) after she graduated from the Slade (London, UK) in 2016. Faye Wei Wei conceives of the painting process as an intimate choreography between actual and pictorial space. Revolving around spiritual iconography and classical myth, love rituals and the theatricality of gender, her works address the themes of particular mythic narratives and at other moments depart into a more ambiguous, interior space of incongruity and uncertainty.
