The exhibition was nothing short of a revelation. An impressive massive body of work. So many artists and truly interesting works.

the "Live Drift" and "SY live at Paradiso" films we did were presented in a video archive which could be accessed by computer.

Really a must see, recommended!

DUSSELDORF.- The exhibition is devoted to the activities of the experimental guitar band Sonic Youth, which profoundly influenced style in the music and art scene from its founding in 1981. This is shown by the numerous joint projects of the band with artists, filmmakers, designers, and musicians, as well as by works of art that Sonic Youth has selected for the exhibition. The interdisciplinary show tells an alternative story of contemporary culture, of teenager rebellion, the restlessness of youth, of the craving for fame and the search for identity, gender roles, sexuality, and religion. This comprehensive project is being staged jointly by the Kunsthalle Düsseldorf and KIT - Kunst im Tunnel. The exhibition will be shown first at LiFE in Saint-Nazaire (17 June - 7 September 2008), at the new Museion in Bozen (10 October 2008 - 4 January 2009), and after Düsseldorf at the Malmö Konsthall. Accompanied to the exhibition the band will give a concert in Düsseldorf.
