Art in the Eighties was very diverse. Influence was asserted by Neo-Expressionism, the New Savages, and Transavantgardism, Performance art, the grotesque and irony. However, what differentiated the art of the Eighties from that of other decades was its turn toward mythological subjects. This exhibition has collected those works and ideas, which did not develop according to evolutionary development models, but emerged suddenly, and remain particular to this decade.
