Timeline
No Budget Show 4
An exhibition based on a concept of the artist Robert Kuśmirowski. At MOCAK, we shall present works of young artists, produced – as the title of the exhibition makes clear – without any financial input whatsoever. On the one hand, this is a throwback to the romantic concept of penniless artistic creation, on the other – an indirect commentary on the issue of the financing of art and culture.
