why we need art now

Art, Sounds, Poems, Movies, Artist Talks …

Already at the beginning of the pandemic, I had the idea of creating a place in the worldwide web that would counteract the current emptiness and silence of thought.

Since the closure of all the exhibition houses, we have been lacking exchange and the tried and tested places of communication.

The question: How does the standstill of cultural life affect artistic production and, in the long run, possibly also curatorial practice?Is now the time for new ways of thinking? How can the void be filled creatively with our own media possibilities that are available to us despite the closure of the exhibition houses? In the 1990s, the Internet was celebrated in the art world, as an independent communication platform. Why not revive these channels? With new media means.
