In an age marked by youth and the future we are once again witnessing increased attention on artistic positions that focus on history and dealing with the past. We delve into archives, take the time to research, unearth, or retell stories – especially ones that have been neglected in the official versions of history. In an archeological manner the artists in this international group exhibition depart from a detail view, trying each in his or her own way to coax the "truth" out of material artifacts, or attempt to shed new light on things using thousands of fragments.
