Namibia – a country in southern Africa – gained its independence in 1990, 35 years ago, making it an amazingly young country. The history and traditions of the peoples who lived here, on the other hand, go back a long way. Thousands of years old rock paintings impressively document the earliest cultures. Modern history, on the other hand, has been dramatically shaped by colonialism and apartheid.

Against this background, the term "young GeNerATION" in the title of the exhibition refers to artists who were born at the time of independence and share a social and political affiliation. It also includes all those who explore the nature of Namibia as a newly emerging nation, including artists who were active before independence but have contributed to the current discourse in recent decades by searching for new themes and expressions.
The exhibition at the Forum Würth Chur is based on a collection of works in the Würth Collection, which was first presented to the public in 2016 at the Museum Würth in Künzelsau in cooperation with the National Art Gallery of Namibia in Windhoek.
