War has many connotations in todays world. We are reminded daily that there is a war going on somewhere. The word war is cleverly used to convince us of many things. Whether it be fear, consumption or contempt. But what happens if the warrior colours of the past are combined with the contemporary art making tools of today? Combined with the right space with the right imagery, a whole new meaning occurs.
Artist, Adnate (Australia) and Eric Mangen (Luxemburg) have attempted to do just that. And the result is their latest exhibition “WAR PAINT” which opens Sunday September 21th at the Willi Bender Gallery (WOW Gallery), in Heidelberg Germany.
