Across twelve specially developed artistic projects, viewers are encouraged to step back from the pressure of the present and consider new visions for how to change society. The participating artists engage with Jewish and universal experiences, life in conflict zones, hybrid identities, and the potential for art to enact social change. The exhibition is an invitation to delve deeper and think beyond fixed parameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Julia Friedrich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3777447943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783777447940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hirmer Verlag GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/20\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs","brand":"Julia Friedrich","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49001285779711,"sku":"9783777447940","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-opposite-of-now-julia-friedrich-9783777447940","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
