Dear friends, supporters and lovers of ETF!

Celebrate both, the end & the kick-off with us

Dear friends, supporters and lovers of ETF!
These have been overwhelming weeks, what an impressive and impressed audience! Feeling richly blessed, we want to celebrate with you the end of this journey, enjoying its explorations over the past 13 years, with a total of 139 artists from 29 geographical origins trusted us with their works. Our common goal was and is to open up the debate between aesthetics and sustainability and to make it perceptible to the senses.

With the farewell to this one great chapter, we are opening a new one, equally great. The idea for a fund for aesthetics and sustainability emerged already at the very beginning of EXAMPLES TO FOLLOW! – the exhibition and meanwhile 195 protagonists from art and science increase the significance of such a fund and make it more visible.

EXAMPLES TO FOLLOW! goes Fund Aesthetics and Sustainability | ETF! FAeS

Aesthetics is all about expanding perception and knowledge through sensual-bodily experience. The aim is to strengthen the imagination, to support the speculative, to create analogies. The purpose of the FAeS is to create a further space of possibilities for expanding the artistic and scientific radius of action. The fundamental goal is to enable intervening in the great challenge of transformation, to realize corporations and to create time.

Based on the experiences of the exhibition, the intention is to create a pilot project that, with intensive further research into the renewable resources of mushroom, wool, hemp and bark, confronts the conventional climate-killing building sector – through new forms of artistic-scientific
intervention and cooperation.

Almost half of the artworks in the exhibition can be purchased during the finissage.The artists want to lay a symbolic foundation, as it is their work that shows that research in art is essential. The same applies to cooperation with the sciences, inventors, NGOs and the expansion of one‘s own artistic sphere of action through longer-lasting cooperative projects.

We will be pleased to see you becoming part of the new path through the purchase of works or donations. In doing so, you and your name will always be connected to the realization of FAeS.

With warm, not entirely blues-free greetings
