NATIONAL ART MUSEUM OF CHINA, BEIJING
STATE OF LIFE. Polish Contemporary Art within a Global Circumstance
curator: Jarosław Lubiak
On show: May 10 until June 24, 2015
State of Life is an attempt to communicate the Polish experience to recipients from a different culture. Presenting Polish art at the National Art Museum of China, State of Life aims to reflect the complex balance of forces and tensions shaping reality in today’s Poland as it undergoes modernization and globalization processes.
The exhibition features some 70 works by artists who concern themselves with the present-day situation in Poland yet work in a truly global vein. It is precisely the achievements of artists from generations enjoying full access to participation in global culture that the exhibition presents in the widest selection.
