Timeline
That in connection with the Exhibition ‚Women Artists International 1877-1977' at the Charlottenberger Schloss, Berlin.
Marianne Wex (13 July 1937 in Hamburg – 13 October 2020 in Schleswig-Holstein) is a German feminist photographer, author and self-healer.
Wex studied fine arts at the Academies of Art Hamburg and Mexico City.
Between 1963 and 1980, Marianne Wex worked as an art academy lecturer in Hamburg.
Her interests in feminism, mass media, sociology and healing determine the form of her work, which conceptually utilizes signs, symbols and color over a variety of mediums: painting, photography, typography and calligraphy.
During the 1970s Wex began focusing on what she perceived as unconscious "female" and "male" body languages.
Living in Hamburg between 1972 and 1977, Wex took more than 5,000 photographs of women and men, most of them in the streets of Hamburg and nearby.
These images illustrated her observation of vastly different body language between the two genders.
Wex's own photographs were complemented with images taken from mass media (advertisements, films, tabloids magazines and newspapers).
Further, she examined and photographed sculptures dating back to 2,000 B.C., finding that idealized body postures and body forms for women and men were far more divergent in the present than historically.
Wex incorporated these historical examples into her work.
The resulting artwork comprises over 200 panels featuring the photographs arranged into different categories of pose.
Since then, the artwork has been exhibited globally and is regarded as a pioneering work of feminist art.
The resulting publication about the artwork has been translated into English and French and the project is still used as an important example in women's and gender studies.
The FrauenMediaTurm documents the piece in his chronicle of the New Women's Movement.
1976: Center for Communication, Paintings, Schalom, Hamburg.

In the 1980s, after her diagnosis, Wex left Germany, turning away from art to travel through New Zealand, India, Japan and Canada, where she became interested in self-healing.
She then traveled to London to study under Lily Cornford.
After studying with Cornford, Wex began teaching seminars and classes on self-healing to women.
She continues this practice today, dealing most recently with the problems and possibilities of parthenogenesis.
