CAPITAL
: DEBT - TERRITORY – UTOPIA

In the shadow of the financial crisis beginning in 2007, the exhibition explores the essence of value.

At times poetic, at times essayistic in its approach, and spanning both time and space, the survey revolves around Joseph Beuys’s groundbreaking work »DAS KAPITAL RAUM 1970—1977« (The Capital Space 1970–1977) (1980), on show in Berlin for the first time. Showcasing artworks and music, films and objects drawn from all over the world, the presentation formulates the urgent question of what capital has been and is – yet, above all, what it could be.
