"The Good Old Days" is an international group exhibition curated by the young South African curator Clare Butcher, who presents an unusual global composition of three young female artists along with the more experienced artist Lara Baladi. The exhibition presents a young post-cold-war-generation's struggle with the inheritance from various artistic and art historical periods and political regimes.

A heritage that to a large extent contributes to define the four exhibitors as human beings, women and artists and that delves deeply into the realm of the possible in a society and in an art that has been, is and will be. The four artists all use specific issues from their cultural backgrounds as their point of departure. Issues, they use to reflect on a world in change and - not least - on the meaning of a specific artistic expression in this world. The artists examine propaganda and use the so-called authentic media types of the collective memory such as photography, film, architecture and body.

Artists: Lara Baladi, Nandipha Mntambo, Lucia Nimcova, Agnieszka Polska.

Exhibition open from February 6 until March 17, 2010.
