ABOUT

אודות

Asking questions, interrogating truth and commenting on the state of things have been for centuries met with forms of censorship. Well known is Socrates’ trial and conviction to death by poisoning as a consequence of his philosophical teaching, considered a “corruption” of the mind of Ancient Greece's’ youth. Contemporary questions on the role of the state in monitoring society and restricting freedom of speech certainly abound worldwide, increasingly transcending national boundaries as technologies present new venues of expression. While imagination continues in its boundless efforts, top-down attempts to control, regulate and categorize thoughts and action persist. This group exhibition brings together different forms of visual techniques to reflect upon the concept of freedom of expression, and mechanisms of exposing and hiding in more general term.
