STORY: This exhibit is only open once every five years
Location: Kassel, Germany
It’s called ‘documenta’
and it’s Germany’s biggest contemporary art exhibit
It features work from over 1,500 international artists
ANGELA DORN, SCIENCE AND ART MINISTER, STATE OF HESSE:
“Documenta has always been a portrayal of its time, a revolutionary art exhibition which questions the way we look at the world, which questions our concept of art today.”
This year’s pieces include a compostable toilet
which resembles an observation deck
‘Documenta’ started in 1955
and is now in its 15th year
