FOREIGN BODIES
Video screening and panel discussion (in English)

Zachęta | cinema room (entrance from Burschego street)
free entry

Inspired by the current exhibition at Stroboskop Art Space (Warsaw),  W Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej językiem urzędowym jest język polski (The official language of the Republic of Poland is Polish) by Daniel Kotowski, Foreign Bodies brings together nine artists based across Europe and the US who explore themes of nation state normalization and the body as site of spirited resistance.

After the screening, select featured artists will be joined in conversation with special guest artist/activist Bogna Burska.

Foreign Bodies features the work of Monika Czyżyk (FI), Yoshinori Niwa (JP/AT), Julie Perini (US), Weronika Wysocka (PL), Lou Watson (US), Alek Sarna (PL/DE), Olga Dziubak (PL), Daniel Kotowski (PL) & Léann Herlihy (IRE)

Foreign Bodies is curated by Katie Zazenski (Stroboskop Art Space) and Brittney Connelly (Carnation Contemporary)
