THERE IS ANOTHER WAY OF LOOKING AT THINGS

“THERE IS ANOTHER WAY OF LOOKING AT THINGS” – this sentence is both our exhibition’s title and motto and reminds us that we have the possibility to view things differently. The quote is taken from Maurizio Nannucci’s eponymous neon work from 2012. Its text has lost none of its topicality. On the contrary, it is more current than ever.

The exhibition features ten works from the Schaufler Collection which can be re-viewed under the impression of the present change of times. Included are works by Ai Weiwei, Tony Cragg, Jeppe Hein, Lori Hersberger, Lee Bul, Maurizio Nannucci, Giulio Paolini, Mario Schifano, and Erwin Wurm. These artworks shed light on what contemporary art is doing not only in times of crisis: It questions the values of our time and takes a stance.
