Exhibitions2017Art in Art

Art in Art was another exhibition in a series that confronted important areas of life with their perception by artists. These included History, Sport, Economy, Crime, Gender and Medicine. Art provides space for reflection and both stimulates and providew depth to our critical perception of everything that existence entails. Such is the role of art, and this is the kind of art that MOCAK endeavoured to explore in Art in Art.

This collection includes masterpieces, representations of famous characters, specific compositional games and expressions and great scandals. The exhibition did not wrestle with any particular existential problem but rather illustrated a sophisticated semantic game that is capable of dealing with a variety of issues.
