Iconic museum sued over ‘ladies-only’ area

A clash gender, art, and discrimination, has played out in a legal battle over an iconic Aussie museum’s “ladies lounge”.

Notable attractions within the partially underground art museum include a mechanical replica of a human digestive system and a wall of vulvas sculpted in porcelain. Ms Kaechele argued that the ladies’ lounge serves as a sanctuary for women, addressing the historical exclusion and imbalance in artistic representation. Picture: Jesse Hunniford

“Any lay person would expect that if you buy a ticket, you would expect the provision of goods and services in line with the law,” he argued. Ms Scott argued that altering the lounge’s exclusionary policy would fundamentally alter the nature of the artwork itself.
