What has prompted contemporary artists to investigate modernity and modernism over the course of the past decades? Modernologies sets out to explore artistic responses to modernity as a socio?political movement aspiring to cultivate a universal language.

Diverging conceptions of modernity and postcolonial studies have led to the notion of ‘multiple modernities’.

Against this backdrop, this exhibition advocates neither a ‘new formalism’ nor a ‘return to abstraction’. Its aim is neither to discover hitherto unknown or largely forgotten currents of modernism. On the contrary, it fundamentally challenges the conditions, constraints, and consequences of modernity, exposes ambivalences, attempts to develop new readings of the rhetoric of modernity and the concomitant grammar of modernism.

A younger generation of artists is increasingly addressing the legacy of modernity and modernism and the failure of the utopia associated with these terms. What are these artists’ relationship to the promises and formal languages of modernity? How can this historical era even be critically reflected in and be subjected to a re?evaluation?

Modernologies unfolds a cartography of alternative viewpoints and narratives, lines of conflicts and unresolved contradictions. More than one hundred works and projects by more than thirty artists and collectives establish a new ‘mapping of the critique of modernity’.

In the accompanying publication an additional layer is added through comprehensive essays exploring the ideology of aesthetic modernity and delving into interrelationships between modernity and coloniality.
