Perceptions of the body are shifting
along with changes in the human
condition. Over the past 50 years,
these changes have been extremely
rapid.
Changes like the establishment of
the welfare society, the sexual
revolution, mass production,
Internet, gene technology, AIDS,
organ banks etc. have given rise to
various new interpretations of the
body. The exhibition illustrates these
many different representations of the
body and human existence itself.
The exhibition occupies the entire
museum presenting 80 international
artists' depictions of the body from
1950 to the present day.
