documenta 12, Kassel 2007
|
|
documenta is one of the world‘s most important art exhibitions
of contemporary art which takes place every five years in
Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator
Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Federal Horticultural
Show. This first documenta was a success as it featured
most of the artists which are generally considered to have
had a significant influence on modern art. The recent documentas
feature art from all continents.
"documenta 12 has
three leitmotifs and they take the form of questions. After
all, we create an exhibition in order to find something
out. Here and there, these motifs may correspond, overlap,
or disintegrate – like a musical score.
Is modernity
our antiquity?
What is bare life?
What is to be done?"
