Can anger and rage be justified in a world riddled with oppression and inequality? Are these emotions destructive forces or vital catalysts for social change? As democracy faces crises and populism gains ground globally, these questions have sparked renewed debate. Contemporary artists have responded, using their work to navigate and challenge the pressing issues of our time. The exhibition ‘Time for Outrage!’ in Düsseldorf explores these questions through six thematic blocks: Right-wing Shift, Trumpism, Protest, Postcolonialism, Feminism, and Discrimination. Across a diverse range of mediums — including installations, drawings, paintings, sculptures, photography, and video art — 40 international artists immerse viewers in the visceral realms of protest, social dissent, and public anger. The exhibition doesn’t just present anger as a raw emotion; it portrays it as a vehicle for dialogue, resistance, and empowerment in the face of systemic injustice. A substantial portion of the works on display come from the collection of entrepreneur and collector Florian Peters-Messer, whose commitment to socially engaged art amplifies the urgent messages these pieces convey.The exhibition delves into a groundbreaking aspect of Russian cultural history birthed from the revolution—mobile propaganda trains. These unique vehicles served as a fusion of art and technology, transforming into vibrant mobile platforms that combined exhibitions, theater, libraries, and cinema on wheels. Launched in 1918 under the directive of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee, these trains traversed vast distances, reaching from Odessa to Irkutsk and engaging communities with their painted exteriors and rich artistic content. Supervised by renowned graphic artist Ignatiy Nivinsky, the trains featured contributions from a diverse array of artists, blending Symbolism with early avant-garde ideas. This exhibition promises an in-depth exploration of their socio-political significance during the Civil War, showcasing archival photos, posters, and various artifacts that capture the ethos of an era where art became instrumental in uniting and inspiring a nation.The exhibition Heart of a Dog: Adventures of a Banned Book. A Monstrous Story delves into the provocative themes of banned literature, spotlighting the cultural ripples caused by censorship. Through a compelling blend of visual art and literary references, this showcase invites visitors to reflect on the power of words and the resilience of artistic expression. By intertwining the narrative of Mikhail Bulgakov’s infamous novella with contemporary artistic interpretations, the exhibition not only celebrates the defiance against oppression but also fosters a dialogue on freedom and creativity in our modern world.CLUBS of the FUTURE explores the legacy of communal spaces, particularly the Houses of Culture across Europe and the former GDR, as it reflects on contemporary practices of collectivity and reform. Emerging from research into the 1,800 GDR Houses of Culture—two-thirds of which were closed post-reunification—the project addresses the societal gaps exploited by right-wing groups. Featuring innovative workshop formats, the exhibition includes Ina Wudtke’s video Greif zur Feder (Grab a Pen), Andrea Pichl’s Klub Zukunft (Future Club), and Ming Wong’s KONTAKTHOPE. Highlighting future-oriented projects, it also showcases garden initiatives like Katya Gardea Browne’s A Floating Garden & Exchange of Seeds, emphasizing the ongoing negotiation of shared civic spaces in times of transition. More at https://www.clubsofthefuture.net/Sergiy Bratkov (b. 1960) is renowned for his radically unsettling and striking photographs that, beneath their vivid surface, present an unflinching report on societal conditions. Like other members of the “Kharkiv School of Photography,” his work over the past 30 years has focused on social photography. In spring 2022, the Ukrainian artist, who had been living in Moscow since 2004, emigrated to Berlin. His recent work, previously centered on outdated Soviet-era clichés and the brash new capitalism of post-Soviet Ukraine, has now been sharply refocused by the brutal realities of the ongoing war. In this exhibition, Bratkov presents new cycles of images and videos created since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The once ironic observer has transformed into a reflective analyst, confronting the horrors of war in his former homeland. His new works grapple with this trauma while resisting the pull of hopelessness.

Museum Choreography

Muuseumi Koreograafia
Estonia Tartu 2018 53

This innovative exhibition reimagines the traditional museum experience through the lens of dance and choreography, inviting audiences to become active participants in the artistic dialogue. It foregrounds the unpredictable interplay between viewer movement and static artworks, showcasing how personal histories, cultural contexts, and physical presence transform the museum into a living, dynamic space. By exploring the nuances of how we look at and engage with art, the exhibition challenges visitors to reflect on their own movement and interactions within the gallery. This exhibition is a thought-provoking exploration of the embodied experience of art, making the viewer an integral part of the creative narrative.

Why should you watch this?

In today’s rapidly evolving cultural landscape, this exhibition stands out by positioning dance and choreography as vital means of understanding and engaging with art in the museum context. By centering the audience’s experience, it reflects our collective need for connection and interaction in spaces that often feel static and distant. In an era where individual perspectives and cultural backgrounds shape our understanding of art, this exhibition invites viewers to reclaim their role, reminding us that museums are not just repositories of art but vibrant environments shaped by human presence and movement. As the act of looking becomes more layered and complex in our digital world, this exhibition challenges us to reconsider our relationship with art, encouraging a deeper engagement that resonates well beyond the gallery walls.
