This catalogue of a travelling exhibition (Hannover, Basel, Frankfurt am Main) demonstrates that artists are able, past all doctrines of growth, to bring forth an artistic treatment of the concept of growth. They indicate lines of connection and dependencies which seem strange to us. Among these are the splendid Venetian Murano glass with which Tue Greenfort illustrates the growth of algae in the Adriatic, the ludicrous flooding of a McDonald’s restaurant, by means of which the Danish artist’s group Superflex alludes to the threatening growth in sea levels. Also works by Dirk Fleischmann, Sylvie Fleury, Mika Rottenberg, Julika Rudelius, Lois Weinberger, Franck Scurti, Dan Peterman and many others.
