Talking... & Other Banana Skins

The Pitfalls of Communication

"Talking... & Other Banana Skins" addresses the polarization of our society. This lively and colorful exhibition provocatively invites dialogue through urban and contemporary art. It encourages visitors to question their own perspective.

– Joséphine Sagna: I want change II

Conflicts and issues are complex and cannot be pigeonholed. The artworks presented in the eight chapters of the exhibition question how and what is communicated in society and in the urban environment. They put the focus back on exchange and dialogue. Arts acts as a catalyst and invites discourse on the most pressing issues of our time. To kick off the exhibition, the internationally renowned collective Broken Fingaz Crew from Israel (Haifa) will redesign the façade of the museum. The exhibition features paintings, installations, sculptures and video works that cover the entire spectrum of urban and contemporary art. Artists include Rocco and his Brothers (Berlin), Icy and Sot (Tabriz/NY), Various and Gould (Berlin), Joséphine Sagna (Hamburg) and Low Bros (Hamburg).
