Cyber-Femin-Club
Cyber-Femin-Club [Кибер-Фемин-Клуб] is St. Petersburg’s first feminist art organization, established by Irina Aktuganova and Alla Mitrofanova in 1995 as a Gallery 21 filial. Cyber-Femin-Club carried out Russia’s first international feminist conferences and round tables, thematic exhibitions, performances, concerts, media projects, and educational initiatives. The club’s activity was based on the intersection of artistic and social practices. It also was one of the pioneering organizations to realize participatory projects and engage various communities in its work. Archival documents dedicated to Cyber-Femin-Club include a selection of press materials covering the events run by the club, as well as booklets and thematic publications. Photo and video materials, including documentation of events and particular artworks, form a separate block of the archive. (Source)
The club united activities in the field of culture and new technologies (theoretical seminars, multimedia performances, videos, Internet projects, experimental sound). The common basis was the understanding of modernity through the metaphors of new technologies. The club's post-feminist position insists on multiple and procedural identities.
