Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A massive panorama of Eastern Europe’s postwar avant-gardes, featuring both canonical and lesser-known artists Multiple Realities offers a sweeping survey of experimental art made in six Central Eastern European nations―GDR, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania and Yugoslavia―during the 1960s to 1980s. Despite their geographical proximity, artists working during this time encountered different conditions for daily life and art-making, confronting varying degrees of control and pressure exerted by state authorities.Embracing conceptual or formal innovation and a spirit of adventurousness, Multiple Realities sheds light on ways that artists refused, circumvented, eluded and subverted official systems, in the process creating works often riddled with wit, humor or irony. While it presents select canonical figures from the region, the exhibition foregrounds lesser-known practitioners, particularly women artists, artist collectives and those exploring embodiment through an LGBTQ+ lens.Artists include : Milan Adamciak, Autoperformationsartisten, AWACS, Lubomír Benes, Sándor Benkö, A.E. Bizottság, Vladimir Bonacic, Geta Bratescu, Adina Caloenescu, Zdenka Cechová, Vera Chytilová, Lutz Dammbeck, Jan Dobkowski, Sherban Epuré, Barbara Falender, Lászlo Fehér, Stano Filko, AG Geige, Teresa Gierzyńska, Karpo Godina, Tomislav Gotovac, Ion Grigorescu, Wiktor Gutt & Waldemar Raniszewski, Gino Hahnemann, Heino Hilger, Károly Hopp-Halász, Janós Istvány, Sanja Ivekovic, Libuse Jarcovjáková, Zeljko Jerman, Krzysztof Jung, Eva Kmentová, Milan Knízák/AKTUAL Group, Július Koller, Jirí Kovanda, Gyula Konkoly, Kryzys, Jolanta Marcolla, Florin Maxa, Tomislav Mikulić, Teresa Murak, Katalin Ladik, Matei Lazarescu, Natalia LL, Ana Lupas, Dóra Maurer, Simon Menner, Andrzej Mitan, Kolomon Novak, Ewa Partum, Plastic People of the Universe, Polish Radio Experimental Studio, Queer Art Institute, Józef Robakowski, Jerzy Rosolowicz, Akademia Ruchu, Zbigniew Rybczyński, Alina Szapocznikow, Peter stembera and Krzysztof Wodiczko.
