The exhibition “A Difficult Age. Szapocznikow – Wajda – Wróblewski”, which presents the work of Andrzej Wajda (1926-2016), Alina Szapocznikow (1926-1973) and Andrzej Wróblewski (1927-1957), opened at the private museum MO muziejus in Vilnius, which was established by the collector couple – Danguolė and Viktoras Butkus.

The first installment of Anda Rottenberg’s curatorial concept took place in 2018 at the Silesian Museum in Katowice (more at: https://www.andrzejwroblewski.pl/aktualnosci-news/szapocznikow-wroblewski-wajda/)

“We are very proud and happy with this exhibition. We will present Poland’s most prominent artists, whose works can be seen and admired in one place – a truly extraordinary opportunity. One of the main reasons for this project was understanding of how little Andrzej Wróblewski, who was born and raised in Vilnius, is known in Lithuania beyond a narrow circle of professionals and how awkward it still is to talk about the history of Vilnius in the whirlwind of World War II”, says Milda Ivanauskienė, MO Museum director.

Among the exhibited works are: Executed Man, Execution with a Gestapo Man, Execution, (Execution II, Poznań Execution), Sunken Cities, (Sunken City I), (Man’s Head on Red Background) and many more.

The exhibition is on view at MO museum in Vilnius until July 18.
