what ends when we say farewell?

After more than two years, Contemporary Matters is leaving Seestadt and with it the Contemporary Matters Studio. It was an exciting time for us: We were able to curate five exhibitions and open our space to numerous curators and artists as part of the "hosted by Contemporary Matters" event series. We want to celebrate the end of our residency with one last exhibition: what ends when we say farewell?
