ORDER

Who is old – where and when? Can we meet the ‘challenge of ageing’ optimistically? And what potential lies in the process of ageing? The process of growing older is not just important for each individual, but has implications for the social and cultural spheres. Yet each generation ages differently and each culture has its differences in defining ‘age’. International scientists, artists and poets, as well as younger and older people from the general public address and explore this subject, each in their own way, through photography, film, literature, sketching and drawing.

GREY IS THE NEW PINK combines individual and personal approaches to such topics as lifestyle, love, sex and tenderness, transmission of knowledge, longevity, health, illness, and death to show a multifaceted collection of ways of dealing with ‘growing older’ and the life phase of ‘age’ in contemporary society and in future.
