Exhibition: Travel Bureau Europa
Anything to avoid having to stay put
2 September till 20 November 2022Travel, explore, marvel. Bureau Europa turns its attention to people travelling, from silent reflection at home to the hustle and bustle of mass tourism. The desire to constantly expand our horizons, to venture out individually or in groups, is a given. Even though we have every possible imaginary or virtual destination at our fingers – we only have to read about them or look online – a physical journey is still preferable. Sometimes, travelling long distances is not possible. Ailments, old age, and imprisonment have all inspired the perambulatory reflections of artists and designers. After all, you can always recall travel memories or imagine yourself in remote destinations. One thing is certain: we humans are not good at staying put.
