After the collapse of the wall of 1989, Berlin continued changing and attracted world attention as politics, economy, a test site of the culture. In the 0s, Berlin becomes the hot city attracting an artist most in the world. A gentle social network is made, and 恊働 and alternating current to cross the genre are done there. For the complicated political circle situation accelerated by globalization,
The opinion (get fat) for society had in each work echoes like music (beat) in the town of Berlin.
In the times of the wall, Berlin yearned for freedom, and it became the symbol of the struggle for freedom. The heat at that time is still left and, with free space to lie scattered in a city, does current Berlin in “the special place”.
18 sets (12 countries) of artists who I gather from living-in-を, the world in existing now of a special place permitted small utopia – us in “here”, and live in Berlin project it by various expression such as a picture, a picture, a performance.
A performance and molding, information, a body, city space questioning space and relations of the identity are developed as practice of vivid production based on phase of new sensitivity by the history with society and the relation for the ideology, the rebuilding of the story, the intervention to the city.
Place indicating the state, that of art in the future are Berlin.
This exhibition is held under the cosponsorship with the German Cultural Center in commemoration of the Japan and Germany interchange 150th anniversary.
