黑料不打烊

鈥淲ho am I? How do others see me? Who do I want to be?鈥� Especially during puberty, the question of one鈥檚 own identity gains in importance. For the first time, the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg is enabling young people to conceive their own exhibition on this theme. The museum鈥檚 curatorial and research assistants have developed an exhibition program together with young people between the ages of fourteen and seventeen.

During puberty, the transformation of one鈥檚 own body and the awakening of sexuality, as well as emerging social tasks and attributions, make young people aware for the first time of the different concepts of identification offered by the real and digital environments. These existential questions are also negotiated in contemporary art: In an interplay of reception, self-representation, and self-staging, artists discuss various forms of the representation of identity, reflecting social roles and stereotypical identity patterns. In addition to dealing critically with the theme of identity, the young people were taught professional and methodological skills and encouraged to develop an enthusiasm for contemporary art.
