The group exhibition Why here is always somewhere else is dedicated to the conceptual and performative art of Central, East and Southeastern Europe. The exhibition focusses on a selection of works from Kontakt, the art collection of the Erste Bank Group in Vienna. For this first-time presentation of the collection in Germany the curators Alenka Gregoric from Ljubljana, Antonia Majaca from Zagreb, Vit Havranek from Prague and the Prelom Kolektiv from Belgrade have been asked to integrate supplementary contributions of their current work in the exhibition.
The selection of works from Kontakt was developed in cooperation with Walter Seidl, curator of the collection.
The project is supported by the Ministry for Science, Research and Arts, Baden-Wuerttemberg and the Stadtsparkasse Karlsruhe.
