Remembering 25 Years of Reformation

This exhibition is not (just) about the Reformation. Nor is it about glorification, especially at this point in our lives when we are still struggling for democracy. Rather, this exhibition was initiated to be a space that brings together various memories of a moment that has changed many things in the lives of individuals and us as citizens of a nation. We, and several artists from different backgrounds and generations, would like to invite you to talk about the markers of a tipping point: how a set of historical events happening during the period that have prompted a breadth of interpretations are mused on in different ways, and have started a conversation that leads to many paths.
