00s is the first exhibition that explores the 2000s, taking as its starting point one of the most important European collections of contemporary art – the Cranford Collection. Marked by profound changes, this decade seems to have never ended, as if it were still extending towards us. How to give shape to this phantom period’s identity? Through more than 100 works by artists from across different generations, all of whom have contributed to shape the beginning of this millennium, materialise unique and unusual conversations with this time.
