This is Tomorrow
With a loan from the Mercedes-Benz Art Collection
The Mercedes-Benz Art Collection is supporting the exhibition ‘This is Tomorrow’ with a loan from its collection.
About the exhibition: Our present is heterogeneous, global, and discursive. On the one hand, this is reflected in the variety of media: alongside paintings, sculptures, photographs and works on paper, large-format video works and expansive installations are on display. Secondly, it is reflected in the variety of perspectives of the artists, whose different experiences and life worlds flow into their works and broaden our view. Contemporary art is juxtaposed with works from the 20th century, which show that current themes such as ecological crises, war and violence, the examination of identity and the human body as well as the fundamental question of social coexistence have determined artistic creation for at least a century. In this way, questions from the past demonstrate their relevance and offer food for thought regarding our future. (Staatsgalerie Stuttgart)
