Art to walk on? To help yourself from? To move around in? <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Taking as its basis the works of 26 international contemporary artists, the exhibition examines the viewer’s role in relatively recent art. Frequently we are invited to touch the artwork, to move around in it, to help ourselves from it or in other ways play a part in relation to it. We are placed in the role of active participant or ‘passenger’. In various ways, our traditional situation as a detached contemplative spectator is challenged. The exhibition seeks to clarify this aesthetic shift such as it finds expression in art from the 1960s until today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
