In the late 1960s, a group of young art educators from the environment of the Munich Art Academy began to fundamentally rethink art education. Under the name KEKS – short for Kunst, Erziehung, Kybernetik, Soziologie (Art, Education, Cybernetics, Sociology) – they left the classroom behind to use urban space as a site of lived experience.
The exhibition in the Archiv Galerie at Haus der Kunst is part of the comprehensive exhibition “For Children. Art Stories since 1968” and marks its historical point of departure. It features largely unpublished materials from the personal archives of KEKS members. Many of their actions remain strikingly relevant today.
