Echtzeit – New works for the art collection of the city of Dresden

With a comfortable budget, works of art were acquired for the municipal collection from predominantly contemporary artists, which were then shown in a large exhibition. The focus was particularly on painting, which is strongly anchored in the Dresden art scene and often reveals references to the high painterly quality of the Dresden School. The show was complemented by sculptures and conceptual works that rounded off this flash of insight into the art scene.

More than 40 works of art were presented in "Real Time". There was no theme that would have limited the selection in terms of content and historical canons did not play a role either. The result was a celebration of diversity! The exhibition presented a wealth of artistic styles and aesthetic strategies. It invited visitors to engage in a visual exchange that stimulated reflection and discussion in a variety of ways.

This special exhibition not only offered an overview of the latest developments in contemporary art, but also created a platform for reflecting on the social and cultural issues of our time. Visitors were invited to enter into a dialogue with the works, question their own perspectives and develop new ways of thinking.
