The exhibition Time Lines shows works by artists from different generations who are all occupied with time in their respective ways. The works pose questions about a linear course of time in particular and connect different points from the past, present and future. The projects—some of which were specially realised for the exhibition—play with changes in perspective, serial principles or the emphasis on production time. The thematic treatment of time leads in some of the works to a more abstract form, but in the case of others a more concrete pictorial language obtains, oriented toward man himself or cultural processes.
