Exhibition
Dogs in the Hoods
Salon Mondial
Freilager-Platz 9, 4142 Münchenstein
Dogs in the Hoods is a group exhibition with 17 artists and various events on the themes of dogs and art.
These canine beings, in all their forms, live among us or with us. Whether they are city dogs or country people, this exhibition is to reflect their essence, their bond with us, in all its manifestations, we see the importance of dogs and their relationships with people.
They can help us and even save us through difficult times of crisis. They can be the saving grace in the midst of a pandemic. Their dependence and trust bring them close to us. Perhaps they are just silent observers with their all-seeing eyes and subtle sense of smell. How do they connect and interact with us, with their wagging tails (and stories) and devoted looks of loyalty? Perhaps they were once street dogs seeking shelter, and now they hope for peace alongside or near us. Many people around the world and also in Switzerland felt the need to have such a companion by their side to rescue them from their isolation, inside and outside the pandemic.
Our furry friend is our mood lifting 'drug' in so many situations; a blood pressure lowering agent without having to swallow a pill. We can be grateful for their presence, as a preventative and cure for our ailments and psychosomatic aggravations in times of hysteria or mania, when normality is severely distorted.
How do these furry animals manage to captivate our thoughts, our minds and our hearts? Follow the stories of dogs and their owner:s and explore the ideas of therapy with local canine experts.
