Politics in Art is the 10th exhibition in the flagship MOCAK series, in which we combine art with the most important civilisational concepts. Each exhibition presents a variety of artistic interpretations of a given theme. Politics in Art has been confronted with a tragic time when political ambitions have turned into a crime.

The catalogue of the exhibition presenting MOCAK’s most important series comprises reproductions and descriptions of works by almost 70 artists, as well as texts by Jan Woleński, Janusz Palikot, Paweł Kowal, Marcin Matczak, Aliaxeya Talstou and Maria Anna Potocka, who look at the relationship between politics and art from different perspectives.
