مستخلص: The article discusses the exhibition "Feared and Revered: Feminine Power through the Ages" at the National Museum of Australia. The exhibition showcases over 160 artifacts from the British Museum, as well as Indigenous artworks and Kylie Minogue's costume. The exhibition explores themes such as creation, passion, magic, justice, and compassion, but some critics argue that it lacks historical context and obscures the colonial past. Despite its flaws, the exhibition is praised for celebrating representations of women and femininity and allowing them to exert power. [Extracted from the article]
