SOFT POWER ARCHIVE; Opening: Saturday 15th December 2012.

SOFT POWER ARCHIVE





Soft Power is a curatorial project on biotechnology and life sciences.
Started in the Bask Country in 2009, Soft Power has showed the work of artists, activists and critics reflecting on the impact of biotech innovations on economy, environment, health, food and life styles, through a wide range of activities. The catalogue has been published in 2012 by consonni.
To celebrate the launch of the catalogue we will display at Altes Finanzamt part of the archive of the project. You will find documentation of the artworks and activities as well as a selection of the books that have inspired the project.

Curated by: Maria Ptqk
