Synopsis

Spoken texts, and images emerge from social and cultural contexts; they are therefore charged with meanings, are carriers of values and norms. Inevitably, they also mark boundaries, serve to declare people members of groups or to outsiders. All the more important is the question of what can be said and shown and who or what decides about it. The present catalogue addresses this subject using outstanding artistic positions of the 20th and 21st centuries. The works combined in it tell of mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion, of attributions and the narratives created for this. And they remind us that these appearances are man-made and therefore changeable - they make us jointly responsible.
