The publication “Beyond the Pain”, accompanying the exhibition of the same name at Galerie Stadt Sindelfingen, deals with strategies of overcoming pain in the visual arts. Twelve renowned national and international artists show how negative physical and psychological experiences can be transformed into a positive attitude towards life. Scientific contributions complement and discuss Overcoming Pain. Since the reception of art, just like the experience of pain, is an experience that is shaped by cultural and social norms, but at the same time is also a deeply individual experience, contemporary art meets a universal theme of humanity.

With Bas Jan Ader, Nobuyoshi Araki, Harun Farocki, Forensic Architecture, Patrycja German, Anna Gohmert, Damien Hirst, Viktoria Modesta, Barbis Ruder, Marianna Simnett, Maya Watanabe and Gabrielle Zimmermann
