A group show of 12 artistic projects developed specially for it at the Jewish Museum Berlin. The museum presents it to mark its 25th anniversary, inviting its audience to move on from the present and to engage with an often oppressive present in order to counter it with their own ideas. The perspective of the Jewish minority, which has endured many insufferable presents throughout its history, is one of the starting points, and the exhibition calls for a turnaround, an opposite, a better life for all. With Yael Bartana, Andrea Büttner, Chto Delat, Arnold Dreyblatt, William Forsythe, Dana Kavelina, Alexander Kluge, Daniel Laufer, Dor Zlehka Levy, Ari Benjamin Meyers, Alona Rodeh, Eran Schaerf.
