The group exhibition 'Attitude Era,' co-curated by Pia Wamsler and Frederike Sperling, navigates the complex relationship between reality and spectacle in contemporary populist politics. Drawing inspiration from Abraham Josephine Riesmann's observation that populism shares more with wrestling than traditional politics, the exhibition posits that for populism, the effect and spectacle are paramount, with reality being what is accepted as such. 'Attitude is everything.' The exhibition explores the interplay of politics and show fights, fact and fake, manipulation and dissociation. It positions doubt, fragility, and humor as crucial aesthetic strategies employed to thwart the populist spectacle. As part of its programming, Kunstraum collaborates with donaufestival to release a podcast episode featuring artist and author Patricia Reed, based on her lecture 'Planetary Hope as Not-Yet-Realism.' The exhibition features artists Alice Bucknell, Chun, Zuzanna Czebatul, Andrea Ferrero, Kiki Furlan, Ndayé Kouagou, and Toxic Thekla.
