New order: About Art in uncertain times
In the autumn of 2021, the international exhibition NEW ORDER will explore questions of order in uncertain times.
The future seems increasingly unpredictable, the now increasingly elusive. Shaped by geopolitical upheavals, new armed conflicts, climate crises, migratory movements and, most recently, the effects of a pandemic, world events have escalated into an unsettled present. The apparent stability of the global order seems unbalanced. Most notably, the pandemic crisis has thrown global networks and the unfettered mobility of data, goods and people into disarray...The international group exhibition NEW ORDER tackles these questions by examining the concept of order in its social and aesthetic dimensions. It brings together works by artists from different generations exploring different forms of order. Topics range from scientific and political orders to critical interrogations of power structures and surveillance mechanisms to blueprints for future orders.
