Love is Louder
On view through January 5, 2025
80 artists look at love from the late ‘60s to today
Love is Louder explores the many facets of love, its tensions, and its various forms. Navigating between the personal and the political, the exhibition will zoom in on three dimensions of love: romantic love, kinship and friendship, and love in a broader social context.
From the Summer of Love of 1967 to today, the exhibition will show how in the last 50 years we have moved beyond the image of the traditional couple or the nuclear family, how friendships shape us and what it means to put love at the heart of society. Discover the work of 80 national and international artists in a wide range of media such as painting, sculpture, video, film and multimedia installations. In times of increasing polarization, the exhibition focuses on what connects us, because: Love is louder.
