Multiple Realities: Experimental Art in the Eastern Bloc, 1960s–1980s

Group show including the work of Július Koller and Jiri Kovanda
The Walker Art Center, Minneapolis
November 11, 2023 - March 3, 2024

Multiple Realities offers a sweeping survey of experimental art made in six Central Eastern European nations during the 1960s to 1980s. Charting a generation of artists invested in experimentation, the Walker-organized exhibition features artworks rarely exhibited in the United States. 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.
