What motivates artists worldwide to create artworks for children? What does it mean to be a child today? Is childhood a closed chapter or a state of being? Haus der Kunst explores these questions with the group exhibition For Children. Art Stories since 1968. The exhibition is based on several years of research, and brings together works by over twenty international artists that have been created specifically for a young audience since the late 1960s. Visitors of all ages are invited to enter into a dialogue with contemporary art and with each other, to rethink today’s understanding of childhood.
