Zusammenfassung: "The exhibition Swimming Pool – Troubled Waters draws on the wide range of ideas and emotions we associate with the topos of the swimming pool, and seeks to expose those common clichés and prejudices that chart our diverse, lasting, and often murky experiences with water. The exhibition probes class barriers and systems of exclusion, amongst others those brought to the surface by the European migrant crisis. References from film history, contemporary art, and a participative reading room developed by C& Center of Unfinished Business, attempts to sound out the gradual infiltration of the issues of inclusion and exclusion into the awareness of affluent societies." -- Kunstlerhaus Bethanien website
