Title: Value of Freedom
Description: With its overlapping themes and cross-references, the publication weaves a tapestry of interdependencies and reciprocal influences between the individual and society, democracy and the economy, work and leisure, body and mind, nature and culture. Freedom is always relative to other factors and so has to be constantly renegotiated. For instance, one part of the exhibition at Belvedere 21 looks at different forms of state governance that shape the community, while another area addresses the control of information as a crucial instrument of power. Some of the works highlight the fragility of freedom, while others explore identity-defining processes such as work. The public space is also the subject of some of the works. All in all, what emerges clearly is that the autonomy of the individual invariably goes hand in hand with social responsibility. Exhibition: Belvedere 21, Vienna, Austria (19.09.2018 - 10.02.2019)
Subjects: Modern Art, Exhibitions, Freedom and art, Liberty in art
