At a time of profound upheaval and global uncertainty, the special exhibition is dedicated to confidence and courage. The current global situation challenges society to look beyond mere crisis mode. However, while the news is often dominated by crises, the exhibition by Patrick Thomas’ communication design class at the Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design shows constructive, hopeful, utopian, but also critical and humorous impulses to remain capable of action and resilient despite adverse circumstances, both as individuals and as a society.
