The artworks of the 20 selected artistic positions of this year’s exhibition titled “The city and me”, deal with the life and the problems in different cities all over Europe and beyond. For this purpose the artists covered their own hometowns whereas others reflected on cities to which they have a special relationship, because they stayed there for some time and/or because they live there today. Some of the artists deal with social aspects of the inhabitants by asking questions about their identity and sometimes even dealing with their individual fate whereas others directly discuss their immediate vicinity, the architecture they live in and the life that surrounds them. Also the animal population of a city becomes an issue. One of the principal topics that was picked up by several artists is the effects of the global economic crisis which cities and inhabitants have to face. But also traffic and problems caused by the worldwide environmental pollution are partly put up for artistic discussion. Some of the works also deal with the phenomenon of rural exodus, others highlight historical aspects.
The artistic media that are used, range from video, photography, painting, drawing, sculpture to installation.
