Opening of the TransFORM exhibition

Art is not only subject to constant movement, such as that of the commissioners on whom it often depends, but it also provokes change on its own. The exhibition presents a selection of works newly acquired by the FRAC Alsace between 2021 and 2023, focusing on the question of how art can bring about change, starting with a shift in the way we perceive and look at things, questioning our habits and tackling major societal issues such as post-colonialism and the destructive effects of human activity on the planet. The artists from four continents - Europe, Africa, South America and Oceania - brought together in this exhibition do not give us answers, but encourage us, through their own aesthetics and visual languages, to reflect on global and universal themes.
