Under the artistic direction of Hou Hanru, MAXXI explores its own collections through over 200 works of art and architecture in a major exhibition involving the entire museum.
Remembering is not enough presents works of art and architecture that create dialogues among themselves and with the space, revealing the experimentation underlying MAXXI’s cultural projects and the and the desire to link the various disciplines in an innovative investigation of the meaning of contemporary creation.
The exhibition revolves around and is animated by universal phrases and themes belonging to the lives of all of us: city and environment, joy and pain, politics and ideology, physicality and intimacy, theatre and performance. The works have been installed to spark reflection, involvement and participation on the part of visitors.
This involvement, an integral part of the exhibition, will be stimulated by a programme of educational workshops, meetings and performances that, through September 2014, will animate the exhibition.
