Artist Kirsha Kaechele arrived at the Tasmania courtroom alongside 25 women dressed in navy business attire, all of whom made a show of reading feminist texts in the courtroom.
Not sure if this was already posted.
The article describes the referenced court case, and the artist's views and intentions.

To be fair, there's a difference between the lounge itself being the exhibit, vs restricting some of Picasso's pieces
Why? Woman habe been restriced from artwork (and jobs, voting rights,...) for generations.
If the point is to give male persons the possibility to feal this exclusion, then it makes sense to exclude something from them that they actually would like to see.
Once I read that the lounge and reaction to it is supposed to be the art itself, it kinda made sense. In a weird way, but it still kinda makes sense.
