The China Moment. Contextualizing Individualism in Chinese Contemporary Art
The China Moment is the first research exhibition presented by the documenta Institut. The exhibition at the Kasseler Kunstverein focuses on a pivotal phase in contemporary Chinese art, during which the relationship between the individual, the state, and society underwent a fundamental transformation.
documenta Institut is independent
The documenta Institut in Kassel is being repositioned for the future: After a founding phase under the umbrella of documenta und Museum Fridericianum gGmbH, the institute, which is dedicated to the significance and impact of the world's most important exhibition of contemporary art and other exhibition formats, is now taking up its work as an independent research institution with financial support from the state of Hesse. The search for a successor to founding director Prof. Dr. Heinz Bude is underway.
