Revolution I Love You
1968 in Art, Politics and Philosophy - international exhibition at Trafo 
Gallery

Opening: 12 September, 2008, 7pm
13 September - 19 October 2008

'Revolution I Love You' is a slogan from May '68 that recalls the 
exuberance, deep desire for change and belief in the possibility of 
freedom illuminating a precious moment of universal revolt. The 
exhibition investigates 1968 as an interlude of liberty and instance of 
global resistance to the oppression and exploitation prevalent in 
hierarchical societies. The focus is on the interplay between the 
politics of the streets, radical philosophy, and the explosion of 
creative responses to the sense of disenchantment with the false promise 
of a technological future and the poisoned fruit of an unsustainable 
consumer society. It considers the modalities of the unrest across 
Europe against the backdrop of contrasting economic and political 
systems from East to West. The exhibition is the second in a series of 
projects investigating the possibility for change through the 
revolutionary moments of the twentieth century and their ramifications 
for contemporary art and culture.
