For more than five thousand years, goddesses, female demons, saints and other spiritual female incarnations have existed in the spiritual and divine belief systems of various civilizations. The exhibition Venerades i temudes (Revered and Feared) brings together sculptures, sacred objects and works of art from different continents, both from the ancient and modern world, to explore the relevant role of these deities; from wisdom, passion, and desire to war, justice, and mercy. The exhibition includes 154 pieces from the British Museum that engage in dialogue with works by renowned contemporary artists, inviting visitors to reflect on female power throughout History as well as today.
