The starting point is the presentation of the main artists of the older generation, each with new works. These, in turn, are linked to central positions in young up-and-coming artists, and historical and current perspectives fruitfully coexist. The special feature: the older generation of artists was selected by the Kunstmuseum Bonn, while the young artists presented were named by those selected artists – a conscious sign against the fantasm of the omnipotent curator and at the same time recognition of the priority achievement of the artists.
