    EXHIBITION TOUR
    “GREY IS THE NEW PINK – Moments of Ageing”
    With Meike Weber
    Δ EXHIBITION TOUR

    Who is old – where and when? Can we meet the ‘challenge of ageing’ optimistically? And what potential lies slumbering in the process of aging?

    Projections for global demographic trends are forecasting an increase in the world’s older population. The process of growing older is not just important for each individual, but has implications for the social and cultural spheres. Yet each generation ages differently. And when can we actually talk of someone as ‘old’ at all? Even if the visible biological aging processes are the same the world over, each culture has its differences in defining ‘age’. There is no universally valid definition of when ‘old age’ starts. So who is old – where and when?

    GREY IS THE NEW PINK presents diverse ideas and models of ‘age(ing)’ from the perspective of cultural studies and the visual arts, as well as personal and individual experience. Like fragments in a lifetime’s memories, the exhibition combines into an anthology of aging the individual ways of dealing with such topics as lifestyle, love and sexuality, transmission of knowledge, longevity, illness, health, and death.

    In the exhibition ‘age(ing)’ is explored internationally in photographs, videos, literature, drawings, as well as large-scale and multimedia installations and performances both in the work of scientists, artists and poets, as well as younger and older people from the general population. Numerous exhibits from the from the Weltkulturen Museum’s Africa, Americas, South East Asia, Oceania, Visual Anthropology collections  and the library broaden the view of the subject.

    Dance Tour in the exhibition “GREY IS THE NEW PINK - Moments of Age(ing)”

    GREY IS THE NEW PINK reflects a new feeling for life which includes self-confident physical expression, especially as we age. Choreographer Petra Lehr and the Ü60 dance club from the Tanzplattform Rhein-Main take you on an unusual dance tour through the exhibition. Diverse facets of ageing, from love and wisdom to illness and death, are translated into performative choreographies accompanied by music by accordionist Christiane Lüder. Inspired by the topics in the exhibition and the dancers’ own personal experiences, the feelings and hopes associated with maturing and ageing are performed and represented in movement.

    Petra Lehr works as a dancer, choreographer and dance instructor and is the founder of the co.lab.tanztheater (dance theater) in Frankfurt. She went to the Leonard Pitt School of Mime and Mask Theater (San Francisco), to the Martha Graham School of Contemporary Dance and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center (New York).

    Christiane Lüder studied at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Hannover and, among other activities, teaches at the Akademie für Tonkunst in Darmstadt. Some examples of her projects are her intense work with Tango Nuevo, performances and premieres of contemporary composers.
