Nuance
Not only the 60s are the basis of the exhibition.The title is also a metaphor for the black-and-white thinking in society and especially the art.The many nuances in both black and white give the nuance of color, but also of opinions see. The exhibition is also the departure of Peter Augustine as curator of contemporary art at the museum since 1995 is connected.
