Opening: Thursday, February 21, 2019, 7 pm<\/strong><\/p>\n

With 280,000 visitors, the exhibition in Munich was a real blockbuster. In February 2019, the exhibition – a collaboration between the Kunsthalle Munich and the Ludwig Forum for International Art – is coming to Aachen. From February 22 to June 30, 2019, and with around 100 works, it will offer an overview of appearance and illusion in art, from antiquity to the latest virtual reality artworks.<\/p>\n

In contrast to the exhibition in Munich, the Ludwig Forum will focus more on contemporary art, right through to immersive works that use digital technology to immerse viewers in artistic virtual worlds. Numerous works from the collection of Peter and Irene Ludwig will contextualize and expand the exhibition.<\/p>\n

The exhibition Thrill of Deception<\/em> shows how artistic deception continually re-emerges, readjusting to the shifting parameters of truth and lies, existence and appearance, reality and deception, illusion and reality. In the 21st century, the age of Photoshop, fake news, and social media bots, the criteria formerly used to identify deception have been supplemented by hybrid forms such as \u201calternative truths\u201d and \u201cfictional reality,\u201d which contribute to a general sense of uncertainty. As a result, it is almost impossible for modern humans to determine the truthfulness of this flood of images and information and thus to avoid being manipulated.<\/p>\n

It is important here to refine our sense of objectivity and hone our senses. To this end, the exhibition Thrill of Deception<\/em> is supplemented by a rich event and education program that aims to stimulate a highly relevant discussion about the profound changes in the digital age and our society.<\/p>\n
