The Greenwashing exhibition sees companies critically. These advertise individual “green” services, but their core business does not remain sustainable. Green outside, black inside. Is this customer cheating? Does that work for him and the politician? How do greenwashers work?

The exhibition explored these questions with installations, photos, paintings, videos and computer games. found in parallel  Talks by the exhibiting artists, “Criticism of companies’ sustainability reports” and “What can the customer do?”
