This Tuesday, Light Industry presents Satisfaction: Consumption Art in Poland, 1973-1979
curated by £ukasz Ronduda. I don’t know much about art in Poland in the 70′s but the press release says that the pop aesthetics were the reaction of a consumer identity in a communist state. I just like the picture of the woman eating a banana- it is almost comical in its overt sexuality and the woman’s hairstyle and makeup remind me of my mom who has never been to the Eastern Bloc. The exhibit will feature both photography and films from different artists working in Poland during the 70′s.
