Listen to us - Artistic intelligence

LISTEN TO US – ARTISTIC INTELLIGENCE, is an invitation to listen attentively to the exhibited works of art, precisely because their statement is not restricted by words and language. Their visual presence is structured by shape, color, form and formulated by their sensual and emotional power.

With all the artistic intelligence, they indicate, orbit and illuminate complex and often contradictory themes from many different angles at the same time.

The fall of the Iron Curtain some 30 years ago laid the foundation to overcome the decades-long division of Europe into East and West, into Capitalism or Communism, into democracy or party dictatorship. The more than 80 works in the exhibition have been created during these 30 years. They are from over 40 artists who grew up in Eastern European countries. These artists have experienced the process of the societal upheaval in their own biography and in that of their parents and grandparents.

They are contemporary witnesses of the dramatic big and many small changes that the societies have experienced since the expulsion from the communist paradise.

The works in the exhibition art draw attention beyond the past to current issues and questions that affect us all in Europe. They try to understand the younger history in a more differentiated way in order to be free of the ghosts of the past, to understand the present and to look into the future.
