Abstract book for FEMeeting 2020: Paris

co-organized by Leonardo/OLATS (FR) and FEMeeting co-founders’ Marta de Menezes and Dalila Honorato

2020 Leonardo Space Art, Science and Culture Workshop All Women Crew does not intend to discuss the “role” of women in astronautics and astronomy, nor to define what a “feminine approach” to space could be. Rather, being totally in line with FEMeeting, its purpose is to give the floor to women who work in those fields ―be they artists, scientists, cultural players or engineers― making them visible and, possibly, imagining a more balanced and non-patriarchal vision of/for space.

Catalogue for FEMeeting 2018

international conference
assembled by the FEMeeting 2018 Organizing Committee, with the support of Cultivamos Cultura (PT) and the Center for Research in Communication Information and Digital Culture (PT) and in partnership with Fundação Eugénio de Almeida (PT), Faculdade de Belas-Artes da Universidade de Lisboa (PT) and Leonardo/ISAST (US)

FEMeeting: Women in Art, Science and Technology had its opening in 2018, recognizing that the concept of woman might be considered challenging, as it is nonconsensual in its multiplicity of roles and arousing cultural imaging. Today, women in art & science women are a visible presence at international festivals and conferences, whether it’s working as faculty, curators, artists or scientists, or several of the above. As the balance in numbers between genders is an undeniable phenomenon, FEMeeting calls for contributions that reflect on the status quo of contemporary science and art.
