Der Autorität
Jahresgaben 2008
30. November – 21. Dezember 2008

"The youth of today love luxury, have bad manners and despise authority."
Socrates, 470-399 BC.

In its 20th anniversary year, the Kunstverein Arnsberg is pleased to present a group exhibition with young and established artists from 20 countries.

The exhibition "The Authority" is dedicated to the '68 and '88 movements with a small selection of current works from 2008. Themes emerge that each generation defines for itself, such as freedom and love, identity and authority, dreams and reality.

This exhibition offers members and guests of the Kunstverein the opportunity to encounter and discover many new positions. Members can purchase works as annual editions and thus support not only the artists but also the Kunstverein.
