HER ART
IN ACTION
is a festival which aims to create
a safe and inclusive space for women artists
to showcase their artworks and performances,
to connect with each other and with audiences,
and to promote gender equality and equity in the art and culture sector.
THE FEMININE GAZE:
What Do You Dream? Picturing Our Inner Lives
The topic for the 2025 edition of Her Art in Action focuses on how women depict and articulate their dreams for themselves. Faced with expectations around family, education, home life, work and community, women are expected to be many things by others. In this exhibition, the commissioned artists depict their own dreams for themselves, showing where expectations and aspirations converge and diverge, and creating a nuanced portrait of how women see their individual and collective futures and their role within them.
VARYOX
We insist on challenging old ideas and proposing new ones.
VarYox was initiated as the first Azerbaijani and English language art and cultural platform founded by local artists in 2018. Our mission is to display the artworks of Azerbaijani artists both in national and international arenas, to archive the innovations in the art and culture spheres by combining social and art activism. One of our main missions is to express that culture is the common value that unites us.
