Tiempos inciertos: Alemania entre guerras (Uncertain Times: Germany Between The Wars)
Tensions and a tragic end marked the Weimar Republic (1919-1933), but many of its ideas, debates, and the legacy of its overflowing creativity are still alive today.
During this rich period, figures as diverse as Thomas Mann, Käthe Kollwitz, Otto Dix, and Jeanne Mammen lived and made significant contributions.
The Great War unleashed political and ideological upheaval, giving rise to the Weimar Republic, a proposal for a society based on reason, democracy, and equality.
The Weimar Republic shook previously unquestioned concepts in German society, subjecting gender roles, music, authority, the workers’ struggle, architecture, quantum physics, aesthetics, and technology to a critical and renewing revision. This uncertainty became the spirit of the times, leading to a paradigm shift that opened the doors to our current way of understanding reality.
This exhibition offers a transversal vision of the rich period through photographs, paintings, sculptures, scenography, music, interactive games, and projections. Transformations, major crises, profound instability, tensions, and opportunities are in dialogue between past and present.
