"There is Nothing There" Exhibition
Czech Center New York / The Bohemian National Hall
This event has ended.
"There Is Nothing There" brings together a number of artists under a shared Czech sensibility—an attachment to and interest in notions of place and belonging, and the ways in which these ideas are deeply linked to questions of identity and community. The artworks in the exhibition negotiate the abstract idea of belonging, revealing a particular tension inscribed in the landscape and social fabric of the Czech Republic—a tension suspended between the failure of the communist utopia and relentless capitalist expansion.
