Never have more people lived on Earth, never has our impact on the planet been greater, never have we been more closely interconnected than today—moreover, our society is changing at an ever-increasing pace. Civilization: The Way We Live Now follows humanity’s visible traces around the globe from the perspective of more than 100 internationally renowned photographers. The exhibition sheds light on various aspects of our highly complex coexistence—from humankind’s great achievements to our collective failings.
In the year of its 40th anniversary, Kunsthalle München is dedicating this exhibition to the question of how we live today, illustrating both civilization’s diversity and contradictions.
This exhibition has been co-produced by the Foundation for the Exhibition of Photography, Minneapolis/Paris/Lausanne, and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Korea in collaboration with the Kunsthalle München.
