The exhbition consideres neo-avant-garde not as a closed art historical phenomenon, but as a state of mind that continues to inform conceptual, intermedia, feminist, ecological, and activist positions in contemporary art. Building on dialogues across artist generations, the exhibition focuses on issues in common rather than linear chronology: memory, the body, leaving traces, and the possibilities of inner freedom in conditions of external constraint.
