MAKING TRUTH Line-up
The MAKING TRUTH Line-up concludes the festival week in terms of content. The focus is on socio-politically active artists and the work of activist groups whose projects in recent years have helped uncover social grievances and stimulate broad discussion. Their artistic activity has its finger on the pulse of the times and can ideally contribute not only to making the world a little truer, but also a little better. The varied series of conversations and discussions leads to a performance specially created for the VIENNA ART WEEK, which focuses on the search for truth in the context of coming to terms with the past.
