The exhibition delves into the future of "community" and "democracy" in the context of our complex and unequal society. It encompasses a wide array of content, from videos spanning the 1950s to the present, displaying artists' works, documenting performances, chronicling the activities of journalists and philosophers, and presenting related materials. Additionally, it incorporates events such as guest speaker talks. This exhibition's overarching goal is to stimulate contemplation on how we can create a more optimistic future society.
