WKV Stuttgart: Könnte aber doch - Exhibition of the artist members of the Württembergischer Kunstverein

By half of all members of the Württembergischer Kunstverein are artists. Against this background, the WKV - now one of the few art associations to do so - regularly organizes exhibitions of its artists members. The show is not subject to a selection of juries, but is merely bound to a given theme.
Nothing that is or was is necessarily as it is or was. It could also have been completely different. Based on these thoughts, this year's members' exhibition 'Könnte aber doch' will take place with about 300 participating artists and aims at an artistic negotiation of the subjunctive 'could be'. The reading of the present manifests in the historiography, which in its selection and focus usually plays into an ideological system. In this context, it is possible for art to design alternative world models in an ironic, political, but also activist way, in which the past can be reinvented as a possibility. This sense of possibility tears into the present a gap that is as creative as it is critical, a gap that at the same time couples what has been with what is to come, that is, with a future which we cannot yet even imagine.
The broad spectrum of the works reflects the diversity of the participants. On the opening weekend and during the course of the exhibition, numerous readings, lectures and performances will take place at WKV.
