The exhibition is in the collaboration with Centrum současného umění Futura

The joint exhibition in MeetFactory Gallery, Kostka Gallery and Futura Gallery is an adjusted and updated version of the Universal Hospitality exhibition (AltePost, Vienna, 2016) curated within the Into the City program of Wiener Festwochen. The Vienna show focused on migration in accordance with the political situation of the time. 

The Prague exhibitions, just a year later, are facing a much more devastated landscape of political turmoil after Brexit, the Turkish coup and its retaliation, and when populism is becoming mainstream even in affluent countries. The European Union is crumbling; threatened by Brexit, the agendas of far-right parties in Western countries and by Eastern European nationalisms and corruption. Dismantling of elements of democracy, authoritarianism and state control are emerging in different countries on both sides of the Atlantic.
 The title of the exhibition refers to the humanistic ideas of enlightenment and elaborates on the Kantian idea of cosmopolitanism.
