The exhibition looks at the fundamentals of nature and expands the classical theory of the four elements – earth, fire, water and air – by a higher dimension: the fifth element.

Get to know the artists’ unusual materials, physical processes and experimental techniques and discover diverse ideas and connections.

Are you artists? In this exhibition you will see only artworks made by women. They lived and worked between 1819 and 1919.

What would you do to follow your dreams? Together we will explore what moved the female artists and get to know them better.

Adeline Jaeger was always drawn to Düsseldorf, where she wanted to paint, study art and enjoy life. Pressured by her family, however, she married a pastor, had children and had little time left for art. In her memoirs, she looks back on this time with melancholy, but also with reflection. At the beginning of the event, passages from the memoir will be read passages before visitors take a guided tour of Jaeger’s artworks in the exhibition “Women Artists. From Monjé to Münter”.
