Therefore Beautiful
Group Exhibition
13.03. - 24.04.2005
The concept of the beautiful is a fragile construct. In a world oriented towards
efficiency and profit, beauty becomes an abstract category that increasingly
serves as the presentation and packaging for other things.
The exhibition “Therefore Beautiful” centers on contemporary art that is aware
of the ambivalence of the beautiful and its construed nature. The beautiful is
not seen as a self-complacent category, but understood in its different
functionalizations. The illusion of the beautiful is thus allowed to retain its
fascination.
