The death and the maiden is a topic which has been explored for generations by artists, writers, musicians.
However, the examination of the topic depends on the culture area and the spirit of the age.
The present situation proofs a high increased expectation of life. Therefor todays priority is being ageless. Juvenileness becomes the highest good within our generation.
Not primary since Photoshop the people are overlocking the impact of aging. Already in the ancient world artists have been embellishing portrais by retouching wrinkles or pumping up muscles.
Everyone wants to live long – but no one wants to get old.
neunplus is now dedicating a group exhibition to this existential topic.
