Germany is a nation with more than 2000 years of history and a historically grown cultural landscape. It is the land of the Germans and the Reformation, of division and unity. Germany is the world champion in exports and processing, the land of poets and thinkers: Martin Luther, Immanuel Kant, Richard Wagner, Martin Heidegger, Günter Grass. These are just a few of the names that shaped German intellectual life.
What about German culture today? What is the relationship between an enlightened constitutional patriotism and German dominant culture? What do we mean today when we talk about German values, about what is true, what is good and, above all, what is beautiful?
First appearing here under the label Guilty Realism, this new movement gets its hands dirty while digging in the German topsoil. In the exhibition, the artists of the Tannhäuser Circle show what they found.
