Transforming the arts

30 May 02 - 14 June 02

We are experiencing a tremendous and rapid change in the meaning of art and culture. While migration and globalisation are fundamentally transforming concepts of homogeneous national culture; art and culture are being charged with new political meaning. Alongside the conservative concepts of national, ethnic, or religious identity, new stories are emerging; they are the counter-myths. These are based on the lives of people, on their specific experiences, on respect for their individual truths. These perspectives and stories form the basis of contemporary performing arts.
