Please come back: il mondo come prigione?

9 Feb-21 May. 26 artists and over 50 works present prison as a metaphor for the contemporary world, and the contemporary world as a metaphor for prison: delving into technology and how we have become hyper-connected and increasingly controlled.

The exhibition's artists include Claire Fontaine, Jenny Holzer, AES+F, Chen Chieh-Jen, and Gianfranco Baruchello.

There is also a parallel programme of talks and workshops in which the public can interact with artists and prisoners.
