Apocalypse, from the Greek, means revelation, the lifting of aveil, or discovery in the literal sense. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the show which is documented in this catalogue proposes a reflection on the end of the separation symbolized by the Wall and the subsequent birth of a true global society as seen in the emergence of Pop surrealism, neo-pop and urban art. Apocalypse Wow! offers a complete historical reading of this movement, long kept at arm's lenght by the official art system. The catalogue, with an introductory homage to Keith Haring, presents around eighty art works and includes essays by Giorgio Calcara, Julie Kogler, Merry Karnowsky, Yasha Young and Matteo Donini.
