\u201cWe should all be feminists!\u201d (Chima\u00admanda Ngozi Adichie) \u2013 feminism has long since become part of popular culture in Europe and the USA. Yet despite global movements, demons\u00adtra\u00adtions and petitions to bring about equality, even in the 21st century we still cannot speak of compre\u00adhen\u00adsive gender equality with regard to women and LGBTQIA+ commu\u00adnities \u2013 neither in this country nor elsewhere. Struc\u00adtural power and inequa\u00adlity relati\u00adons\u00adhips prevent equal pay or the remune\u00adra\u00adtion of domestic work in many places and ensure oppres\u00adsion and explo\u00adita\u00adtion, up to physical violence or even murder: Numerous artists* worldwide react to these untenable condi\u00adtions as well as other global challenges with their feminist-oriented works. Activist, provo\u00adca\u00adtive and direct, but also poetic, humorous and subtle, they try to achieve equal and forward-looking life possi\u00adbi\u00adli\u00adties for themselves, other margi\u00adna\u00adlized people and society as a whole.<\/p>\n
