Multiple artworks by Pablo Picasso have been relocated to a female toilet at Hobart's Mona, following an adverse court ruling which found a man was discriminated against when he was turned away from the women-only 'Ladies Lounge'.
  • In short: Tasmanian art gallery Mona has hung artworks by Pablo Picasso in a female toilet cubicle in response to a failed court bid to exclude men from a women-only art installation.
  • In April, a court ruling found Mona discriminated when it refused a New South Wales man entry to its Ladies Lounge.
  • What’s next? Mona curator Kirsha Kaechele is appealing the discrimination ruling in the Supreme Court.

    I think it’s a problem of enforcement. It states they weren’t letting in people self identifying as ladies.

    I get the point of the exhibit and it’s fair to make the statement. Her point was made and she got international attention. She loses me at the concept of having herself or staff determining genders at the point of access.
