b o s s are women, their workplaces, insights into their everyday lives. b o s s are encounters with women who, despite all their social, ethnic, cultural and age-related differences, have one thing in common: they are bosses.
From March 8 to April 19, you can meet these female bosses in the heart of Hanover's city center: In the cultural triangle between the Künstlerhaus, Schauspielhaus and State Opera House, a series of exhibitions entitled
b o s s | working women, Hanover-based photographer Katrin Ribbe and her two colleagues Kamila Kobierzyńska (Poznań) and Aya Fujioka (Hiroshima) are showing large-format photo portraits from the state capital and its twin cities in Poland and Japan.
Each of the three photographers portrayed six or seven women for the photo exhibition in public space and interviewed two of them. All of the women photographed are self-employed or own a commercial business and are shown in all their diversity in their workplaces.
A total of 19 photographs and six interviews were taken in Hanover, Hiroshima and Poznań. The large-format portraits are exhibited in the open air. They combine the artistic styles of the three photographers, make strong women visible and promote cultural exchange between the international city partnerships.
In addition to the physical exhibition, the website www.boss-workingwomen.com with the photographs and interviews of the women portrayed will be available from March 8, 2025, where the work will remain accessible in the future. The project sponsor is the Agentur für kreative Zwischenraumnutzung e.V. This non-profit association arranges vacant rooms and public spaces for artists and cultural workers, thereby making an important contribution to urban development in Hanover.
