The exhibition 'Diversity United' presents works from nearly 90 artists from Europe. The exhibition has the intention to address important topics to foster dialogue in Europe. Among them: Dreams and Democracy, Crisis and Resistance, Memory and Conflict, Dialogues and Diaries, Power and Equality, Futures and Enlightenment, Borders and Boundaries, Landscapes and Mindscapes, Action and Abstraction. Also, artists whose biographies are linked to Eastern Europe are presented in a significant number. In addition to the loans of works by Sanja Iveković and Martina Vacheva from the Collection, these also include 11 other artists whose works have been represented in the Art Collection Telekom for several years.
