How to visualise thoughts, or even the fleetingness of processes? Visualisierte Denkprozesse and Processi di Pensiero two group exhibitions by Jean-Christophe Ammann at Kunstmuseum Luzern in 1970, revealed the parallels and differences of the art scenes in Switzerland and Italy. Sviluppo – Parallelo takes both exhibitions as a starting point for an experimental project. In 2015 the research platform Stella Maris takes over the exhibition space of Kunstmuseum Luzern with the programme of Radio Tramontana and again spotlights processes and the assumingly marginal.

Sviluppo – Parallelo is not just exhibiting works from the 1970s from the collection of Kunstmuseum Luzern, but reacting to the icons of those days with contemporary performances, concerts, lectures and discussions to question the following: Are the ideas and concepts of the 1970s still relevant today? What has remained, what has become dusty, what can be translated into the present, and what can we learn from the past?
