Summary/Abstract: The article offers an illuminating analysis of the social and economic conditions of today’s twenty somethings. The point of departure for the author is the artistic creativity of Tworzywo – a group of contemporary urban artists. Urban art is viewed as a strategy to negotiate the meaning and power of cultural discourses as well as a way of inventing a new language fit for the expression of the state of rejection for those who believe they live in a pseudo-democratic state. The author of the article sees the urban art as a field to negate and dispute the oppressive political and economic reality we live in. The intension of the author is to show the way of representing the human condition in the age of postmodern era verging on economic crisis and nearing another wave of unemployment.
