Global Context • 1918 • IV
Germany extends voting power to women following the armistice (America does so in 1920, South Africa in 1930, France does only in 1944, and Switzerland only in 1971).

An entry from the timeline included in the exhibition Dada South? Experimentation, Radicalism and Resistance (2009–2010) at the Iziko National Gallery, which proposed connections between art production in South Africa and abroad against the social and political contexts that framed them. A revised version of this timeline was later featured in the retroactive Flight Paths (2011) exhibition guide commissioned by Clare Butcher.
