Anne-lise Coste takes a clear stance towards the position of women in society, which became even more prominent in these #metoo times. In Coste's canvas that references Picasso’s “Les Demoiselles d’Avignon” (1907), Picasso did not in fact paint mademoiselles, as the title suggests, but a brothel scene. By adding the French word “pute” (bitch) to Coste's interpretation of the painting, she unmasks this game of hide and seek. She puts things straightforward and straight from the heart.
