How would one be able to transfer the whirling mobility to today? The exhibition DEMEDARTS is dedicated to this topic. Not only AM FLUSS / ON the river but IN the river, the older residents of Bad Ischl should also feel and move, self-determined and respected, also by the young.
When on Sunday 25.6. 2023 at 11 o'clock the exhibition DEMEDARTS is opened in the gallery AM FLUSS in Bad Ischl, the topic of living with dementia will be the center of attention. The goal of the artistic research project, which is funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF - PEEK AR-609 - is to bring about empathy within our society for people with dementia.
"DEMEDARTS currently represents the only artistic format worldwide to address this topic with younger populations as well".
"Artistic research starts here and creates art and design formats that make people think. The DEMEDARTS exhibition shows the process of the research team's work and also that of the students, who have brought this topic to schools in a wide variety of ways through their mediation concepts. And it currently represents the only artistic format worldwide to address this topic with younger populations as well," explains Ruth Mateus-Berr, project director, herself an artist and designer as well as head of the Center for Didactics for Art and Interdisciplinary Teaching at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.
