During the summer of 2009 the Württembergischer Kunstverein in Stuttgart will be devoting itself to experimental and conceptual art practices that had developed between the nineteen-sixties and eighties in Europe and South America under the influence of military dictatorships and communist regimes. Both the exhibition and the related complementary program will be developed in conjunction with a wide international network of curators and scholars in art and cultural studies—all experts in the field of art from the nineteen-sixties through eighties.
In October 2008 a preparatory meeting of the exhibition project took place at the Kunstverein. The network of curators is based on the research project Vivid Radical Memory (2007).
