Czego nie widać
What Goes Unseen

Summary/Abstract: Małgorzata Dziewulska describes the exhibition Late Polishness: Forms of National Identity after 1989 (Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary Art, 31.08-6.03.2017). The author takes a critical view of the exhibition, pointing out the difficulties in reception caused by the layout; the vagueness of political standpoints and lack of problematization of the contexts in which some works were made; and the “language of discourse” that dominates the exhibition, which causes it to be held “hostage by concepts that have access to neither the individual nor the collective sources of the pictures.”
