Looking at women looking at themselves being looked at Female representation in Charles Mozley’s work
Curated by Cătălina Zlotea
Friday, 22 July 20226 pm to 7.30 pm Department of Typography & Graphic Communication, University of ReadingTOB2Whiteknights RoadEarley GateReading, RG6 6BZ(Sat nav RG6 7BE)
This new exhibition explores the concept of the male gaze in twentieth-century illustration. Cătălina Zlotea, a PhD researcher, analyses the work of the prolific mid-century British illustrator Charles Mozley (1914–1991) through a contemporary lens. At a moment when gender dynamics still define a perpetual cycle of inequality, this show explores how feminine stereotypes have been constructed and perpetuated in British visual culture.
The exhibition is open until 9 September, on weekdays from 10 am to 5 pm. Closed bank holidays.
Please RSVP before 17 July: c.c.zlotea@pgr.reading.ac.uk
