3 leitmotifs for documenta XII

Next year, in 2007, documenta XII will become the 12th incarnation of the so called 'museum of 100 days' in the German city of Kassel. Curators Roger M. Buergel and Ruth Noak have formulated three interesting 'leitmotifs' for this important international art show.


I am impressed that they have been able to formulate such comprehensive questions in the short space of three paragraphs on a single page. Read the text on the absolutely minimalist website of the exhibition: www.documenta12.de

If you speak German I strongly suggest to read the original (very interesting and careful choice of words... quite expressive, almost old fashioned and poetic): www.documenta12.de/leitmotive.html

Another aspect of note is that documenta 12 will be master-minded for the first time by a team from Vienna. Maybe Austria is indeed the better Germany these days???
