Veranstaltungsdetails
We are pleased to announce the group exhibition curated by Simone Neuenschwander entitled "My Protagonists" with six international and regional artists.
The exhibition focuses on figurative art, which has been in the spotlight since modernism and especially since the 1980s. Far removed from idealized depictions, the bodies often appear distorted, exaggerated or placed in absurd contexts. They mirror the contradictions of the present and reflect the tensions between individuality and society. The communication between the figures and their visual contact with the viewer is central to this. How are these communications reflected in the works of a young generation of artists?
