The exhibition "Schau, die Blicke" at the Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen explores the multi-layered theme of seeing and being seen through various artistic media. In drawings, paintings, photographs and films by artists such as Francis Bacon, Miriam Cahn and August Sander, the gaze is examined as a central element. The exhibition questions power relations, emotional reactions and social constructions that arise through the gaze. It invites visitors to reflect on the dynamic between viewer and viewed and to rediscover the role of seeing in art and in everyday life.

The works from the renowned Lambrecht-Schadeberg Collection and the collection of the Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen offer visitors a wide range of perspectives on the subject: works by artists such as Lucian Freud, John Baldessari and Sigmar Polke, which address seeing as a process of the visible and invisible, are thought-provoking. By focusing on the central role of the eye, "Schau, die Blicke" creates an in-depth examination of perception and the interaction between artwork and viewer.
