“Art and crisis“ is a project organized by the exhibition group DOLLZ, which was founded in April 2015. With this exhibition format, the group seeks to engage the changing social relations and to create a platform, in which artists from all over Europe can present their works and views on the subject „crisis“. The current political events raise the question: to what extent does contemporary art, besides conventional media, react to them? We are interested in featuring the diverse approaches of different artists, who are primarily young and/or still attending educational institutions and to embed the results of their reflections in an overall context. The aim of our project is to represent the conditions, which artists individually rate as being related to crisis. By doing this, we make them visible in a parallel and equal way and we will intervene in the present discourse regarding the representative function of art. Thus, we cannot restrain ourselves to the curatorial tasks. We will, through several perspectives in our interdisciplinary approach, extend the visitor’s reception and interpretation of the works exhibited. Another aim is to create an interaction between representatives of artistic disciplines and of other groups, e.g. politically engaged actors, by means of panel discussions, lectures, and workshops, organized by the exhibition group and further experts from different academic branches. In the end, we wish to offer a comprehensive debate about Art and Politics, spheres usually separated
