This project focuses on 10 women who played a special role in Anton Bruckner's life. Linz-based artist Zoe Goldstein spent over a year collecting information to compile these biographies. The aim is to make these women visible in order to get an idea of who they were and how they lived. This examination of old portraits and biographies allows us to question the role of women in society then and now. At the same time, it provides a new, fresh perspective on the life and work of the artist Anton Bruckner. The title of the project links the importance of women to his art and refers to his mother Theresia Bruckner, who was an important female constant in his life.

In order to bring the topic closer to a broad public audience and stimulate a discourse, this project is designed as an open-air traveling exhibition.
In addition to the opening at the Brucknerhaus on International Women's Day, an additional program item is a production with a concert and reading in the last month of the presentation at the Platz des Mariendoms.
