\u201cTalking about categories of masculinity and femininity is essential and necessary for a respectful and tolerant society,” said Berlin-based artist and curator\u00a0Jonny Star of her latest\u00a0plans to stir up traditional gender roles with \u201ckitchen girls and toy boys\u201d\u00a0at Rush Arts Gallery\u00a0in New York. The group show, which Star both curated and contributed work, unites fifteen international artists who playfully engage with gender-role codification.\u00a0Star is no stranger to discussions of sex and gender: after working under the name Jonny Star for years, her\u00a0own identity is intrinsically bound to concepts of concepts.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost people think I am a male artist\u201d, she explained. \u201cAnd when they see my work they start to think that I must be gay. It is interesting how art is still read with popular concepts of gender and sexual orientation, and it\u2019s so easy to cause a disruption with just a name.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jonny Star\u2019s practice is a critique of the patriarchal structures of the art market and the resulting discrimination against female artists. \u201cAlthough there have been change sand women in the western world can live more freely, several statistics and the sales record for art auctions still demonstrate the inequality\u201d. For Jonny Star, it is especially hard to bear. She said, \u201cThe field of art which is supposed to be forward thinking and unconventional, but is strikingly conservative maintaining patriarchal structures\u201d.<\/p>\n

Uniting people from across the artistic fields is the core of Star’s practice. \u201cI want to have as many disciplines as possible in terms of visual and performance art in a show\u2013they all bring different energies to the space,\u201d Star points out. Her multidisciplinary shows create an intense atmosphere, affecting and involving each visitor. Emotions also play an important role. As Jonny Star put it, \u201cWe need to create a new system altogether. Art has the power to transform society and change the perception of the common gender roles.\u201d<\/p>\n
