Sustainability
Sustainability
is defined in such a way that future generations should have the same opportunities for a fulfilling life as we do. At the same time, the opportunities for all people on earth must be distributed more fairly. Sustainable development combines economic progress with social justice and protection of the natural environment. The needs and measures are concretized in the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Intentions
Transporting scientific results such as warnings about the climate crisis, species extinction through our art. Science has explosive results.
Science is interested in it. The transformation must go faster.
Art has a different mode of action. It works emotionally, can cause other interpretations of the content, can be utopian, create visions, be playful, interactive, use humor, irony.
Exhibition titles and works
The target group are artists who apply and potential guests who are addressed for the exhibition.
Titles should be crisp
Can create associations, refer to fairy tales e.g. “Tischlein Deck Dich” M.K., Bible “Sintflut heute” GG3 exhibition after flooding in Ahr valley
Can stimulate liberation “Live your spell” M.K. interactive
Make curious
Are linguistically elegant, get to the point
Are short, touching or even a long quote
You play with language
The work gets to the heart of the issue.
The title must represent the work, not evoke the content.
Are short, are o.k. in context, if necessary subtitles
Sustainability as a topic
Criticism of the existing
Suggestions for alternatives
Originate from the current sustainability – discussion, topics in the media, in science, disasters
The title may arise from the work or the work may arise from the title
Why sustainability art?
To overcome the crisis, to initiate something, to learn,
because it is joyful, urgent, common
