Does democracy need an update? Have we relied too long on the notion that nothing can shake it? The thing about democracy is that it only exists if we keep working at it. In a world that changes every day, it needs to be kept fit. It is thus high time to strengthen our democratic muscles! 

In addition to art and design, the exhibition will feature exhibits from the history of political culture, as well as from architecture, film, and photography.

Visitors will experience first-hand what it means to be empathetic, to show perseverance, or to negotiate compromises. All In! Re-Designing Democracy explores the current social desire for greater participation and inclusion as well as traditional forms of democracy. How has democracy been fought for in the past, how has equality and freedom been fought for? 

The exhibition in cooperation with the Kunstgewerbemuseum/Design Campus, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, will be an excursion to the turning points of history, as well as a bold speculation towards the future: What will the democracy of tomorrow look like?
