Project M/19 | LONELINESS AND OTHER FALSE FRIENDS

The group exhibition LONELINESS and other false friends is part of the series Project M/ by URBAN NATION.

Visitors of the main exhibition TALKING… & OTHER BANANA SKINS at the URBAN NATION Museum were asked to share their opinions on topics they believed should be discussed in society. An impressive majority raised the issue of mental health.

The showcased artworks in the exhibition delve into the processing of emotions and the challenges that modern life poses to mental health. Loneliness is identified and intensified as one of the main factors contributing to mental illnesses. The exhibition presents paintings, installations, and sculptures that encompass the entire spectrum of urban and contemporary art.

On the occasion of the opening of LONELINESS and other false friends and as part of the Gallery Weekends, the exhibition theme was also taken up by Berlin artists commissioned by URBAN NATION. They created a new series of murals on C-Walls (community walls) that can be discovered in the vicinity of the project space.
