Opening: 25 May, 6 p.m.

Neo-Constructivist, light and kinetic art, cybernetic design, concrete and electro-acoustic music were fields of high creativity and experiment in Eastern Europe in the 1960s and 1970s. Seizing the opportunities presented by the relaxation of political control of the arts after Stalinism and exploiting the new official encouragement given to cybernetics, electronics and computing, avant-garde artists and composers began investigating the aesthetic possibilities of electronics and magnetic tape recording. At the same time, other artists seized the possibilities of the happening to produce intermedia artworks combining visual and audio elements.

Curators: David Crowley, Daniel Muzyczuk

Muzeum Sztuki in Lodz owns one of the most interesting collections of 20^th and 21^st century art in Europe, mostly from the area of experimental art. The ms² exhibition presents an artwork not only as a memento of the elapsed time, but also as an occurrence and a statement that is important for us today.

The exhibition is curated by: Jarosław Suchan with the Modern Art Department
