FEMALE PAINTER MAKES FOR A PAINTER’S WIFE 

(opinions about women and their art overheard during my studies)

FEMALE ARTISTS DON’T HAVE NICE NEAT HANDS AND THE GIRLS FROM THE PAINTING DEPARTMENT ARE DIRTY

IN TARASEWICZ’S ATELIER YOU ONLY NEED TO BE WELL DRESSED AT YOUR PRESENTATION

A WOMEN EVEN IF SHE GRADUATES FROM THE ACADEMY OF FINE ART  WILL STILL GET MARRIED AND GIVE BIRTH TO A CHILD

THE ACADEMY OF FINE ART SHOULD BE LIKE THE ARMY THERE IS NO PLACE FOR  BABES WITH COMPLEXES WHO CRY AFTER EVERY CRITICISM

THE DEPARTMENT IS UNFORTUNATELY BECOMING FEMINISED

I PAINT LITTLE SENSITIVE PICTURES PREFERABLY DOG PORTRAITS

ARCHITECTURE IS NOT AN APPROPIATE SUBJECT FOR WOMEN I PREFER OLGA BOZNANSKA’S PAINTINGS

WOMEN’S ART IS MORE DELICATE MORE DECORATIVE

MY PROFESSOR PAINTS STRIPES AND I PAINT DOTS BECAUSE IT’S MORE GIRLISH

BREASTS IN ART NEED NO SUPPORT

SO PRETTY AND SO TALENTED

SO PRETTY BUT SO LAZY

MISS KRYSIA YOUR EYES ARE LIKE BEADS

IF WE ASSUME THAT THERE IS NO SUCH DIVISION BETWEEN WOMEN’S AND MEN’S ART IT WIL TURN OUT THAT THE ONLY GENDER THAT EXSIST IN PAINTING IS MALE POOR WOMEN THEY REALLY CAN’T DO ANYTHING

FEMINISTS ARE REPULSIVE FAT LESBIANS WHO BURN THEIR BRAS

I’M  DEFINITELY NOT A FEMINIST – I SHAVE MY LEGS

FEMALE PAINTERS MAKE FOR A PAINTER’S WIVES

8 IN 10 GIRLS IN THE GRAPHICS DEPARTMENT ARE FUCKING FOXES IN THE PAINTING DEPARTMENT YOU MAY FIND 2 PRETTY GIRLS A YEAR I THINK OUR PROFESSORS SHOULD BE WISER AND TAKE SOME NICE BIMBOS TO OUR DEPARTMENT
