ChronoMoMoWo is a timeline conceived for the International Travelling Exhibition of the European project "MoMoWo – Women’s creativity since the Modern Movement". This timeline has been devised as a framework that helps to understand the activity carried out between 1918 and 2018 by European female architects, designers and civil engineers. ChronoMoMoWo mirrors the growing of visibility of women's professional creativity and provides a continuum of personal achievements that have contributed to breaking the glass ceiling that is often found in architecture and design. ChronoMoMoWo traces two lines that are related from a historical point of view. The lower area shows a summary of the main achievements of European women in the fields of politics, society, culture, science, education and sports. The upper area presents the most relevant milestones by female architects and designers, including the access of women to higher education, the awards received, and the creation of female professional associations or the most important works by several cohorts of female designers. This timeline represents a historical context that evolves from black and white pictures to colour photographs, portraying a group of capable and talented women that have been –and still are– able to compete with their male counterparts in their professional careers
