 *Concept:
The meaning of life—its significance, purpose, and ultimate fate—is a central world concept and is questioned in science, philosophy, religion and art.
As there is no unequivocal definition of life, this is the chance for international, national and local artists and galleries to offer their interpretation of how their life as an artist relates to their existence and consciousness in a unique exhibition opportunity.
