Are you Curious?

If you're a fan of contemporary art, you might be interested in the "Neugirig?" (Curious) exhibition, which comes to Bonn at the end of January. For the first time since its inauguration, the Art and Exhibition Hall of the Federal Republic of Germany will honour the commitment of private collectors with a major exhibition presenting a selection of 145 works by 57 artists from 15 private collections in Germany, France and Switzerland. The exhibition throws into sharp relief the key questions that have shaped contemporary art and provides a glimpse of the art of the future. It invites reflection and offers ample food for thought. All it takes the viewer to make use of that offer is a healthy dose of curiosity. What unites all the artists presented in Curious? – the majority of whom were born in the 1960s and 70s – is that they develop their work on the basis of clear concepts and strategies. Entire groups of works rub shoulders with small, solitary pieces that make a specific point. The exhibition marks the beginning of a long-term cooperation with leading private collectors of contemporary art both in Germany and in the neighbouring countries.
