A community art project adds new perspectives to ongoing discussions of equality.

Since 2018, Katharina Cibulka and her team have been mounting hand-embroidered scaffolding nets on well-frequented, prominent construction sites, inviting the public to join the conversation on feminist issues. Each sentence begins with “As long as . . .” and ends with “ . . . I will be a feminist,” addressing existing inequalities.

SOLANGE / AS LONG AS is an international community art project that speaks all languages. The art interventions take place on the façades of museums, universities, churches, and fortresses from Vienna to Cologne, from Ljubljana and Rabat to Washington, DC. The subjects are developed on location in participatory processes. The project aims to raise awareness for gender equality beyond the feminist bubble, both on-site and on social media. This lavishly illustrated volume describes the twenty-eight projects in seven countries to date–including the project in cooperation with the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C.–and provides an insight into the nets’ background stories and their public reception.
