This project is about former generations and their hopes about their future.

I got the idea 2008 while looking on photographs showing my daddies school mates in the year 1962. Unburdened schoolboys a view years before “1968” – the year of big changes in society :

And I asked myself which ideas and dreams this generation might have had, and how these changes in 1968 are still alive today. On the other hand, I also asked myself which achievements maybe got lost on the way or changed into the opposite now.

The schoolboys themselves looked quite similar to schoolboys nowadays- but a lot of things happend since then.

In conceptual artworks I will bring these items into a context:

• Photographs from the PAST and TODAY, portraits of people , collages from magazines will be painted, collaged and reordered to a conceptual serie of artworks.
• Different periods of time ( World war I and II, ex DDR, UDSSR, 1968 etc.) and different questions will be critically analysed.
• At the end of the year I would like to produce a book with all the paintings and findings .
• And last but not least: I will try to find an international gallery to exhibit the works!
