TOO MUCH FUTURE – DONATION BY FLORIAN PETERS-MESSER
The Kunstpalast presents works from Florian Peters-Messer's extensive donation, which the Viersen collector made to mark his 60th birthday.
The Collection Peters-Messer unites well-known contemporary artists such as John BOCK, Sophie CALLE and Thomas HIRSCHHORN with emerging artists like Rebekka BENZENBERG, Harry HACHMEISTER, Henrike NAUMANN, Murat ÖNEN, Ulrike SCHULZE and Sophia SÜSSMILCH.
The exhibition features an incisive selection of political works that critically explore the societal upheavals of our time – sometimes with oppressive directness, sometimes with expressive gestures or conceptual clarity. In addition to a large number of expansive installations, the donation includes paintings, drawings, photography and video art.
