*Fields - patterns of social, scientific, and technological
transformations.*


 The changing role of art in society is one where it does not just create a
new aesthetics but gets involved in patterns of social, scientific, and
technological transformations. The exhibition Fields presents a lively
landscape of art that challenges existing viewpoints, deconstructs social
issues, and proposes positive visions for the future. Artists in the Fields
exhibition make new combinations of existing fields-as-in-disciplines -
fusing and navigating between the social and the natural, the scientific
and the emotional, the sensible and the actual in imaginative ways.

The exhibition will show approximately 40 artworks by artists from all over
the world, but with a special focus on Central, Eastern and Northern
Europe. The exhibition will be accompanied by a festival Art+Communication
program with public lectures and Renewable Futures conference, as well as a
concert and live performances
