Niet Normaal
Posted: March 3rd, 2010 | Author: amyabaker | Filed under: Art | Tags: art. exhibition, gallery, museum | No Comments »What is normal and who decides this? This is the central question surrounding the exhibit : Niet Normaal on display in Amsterdam until March 7th.
As stated on their website, “Niet Normaal questions normality in a society that makes perfection the standard, in which market en economy create new social service groups and (bio) technological developments not only create chances but also limit them.”
Having been to the show last week, I was really impressed with the work on exhibition and the educational aspect behind most of the pieces. From video installations, to interactive works and life size photography, the international artists from all over the globe took the theme to heart and made the audience question this ambiguous concept of ‘normality.’
