Death plays an important role in Mexico - one of the most important holidays is the "Day of the Dead". At this year's Wave-Gotik-Treffen, around 30 artists are expressing their view of death with paintings in Leipzig's main train station. The exhibition "Necropolis", ancient Greek for city of the dead, shows skulls and funerary art in a varied way - from the typical colors of Mexican folklore to classic black and white. To round off the festival of the dead in the promenades, the art exhibition will be accompanied by live concerts by Mexican darkwave bands during the WGT.
