Against the backdrop of the fear of alienation as well as exclusion and its consequences, the exhibition negotiates the ambivalent concept of homeland in a "volatile modernity" (Zygmunt Bauman) with its experiences of globalization and fluid power structures. The appropriation of the emotionally connoted narrative of homeland by right-wing voices in the sense of a folk ideology is countered by the romanticization of homeland fantasies in commercial folklore.
The exhibition „SurVival: Questions about the Future“ is conceptually based on the film „Soylent Green“ (1973), which takes place in the year 2022 and almost fifty years ago created a gloomy vision of the future, that of extreme overpopulation and the ecological problems it caused. Against the background of this almost 50-year-old look into a future that has now become the present, the exhibition opens up a polyphonic space for reflection with twelve artistic positions.
