The thematic exhibition "Routinised Absurdity" presents photographs by ten international contemporary photographers who deal in different ways with everyday processes and their surprising refraction. It raises questions about the state of a performance-oriented society, in which efficient action is paramount. The downsides of the permanent functioning of each individual are also examined—fatigue, overwork, and collapse.Curated by CUCO – curatorial concepts berlin e.V.
