The exhibition entitled Concrete Wroc艂aw features a selection of works belonging to the collection of the Zach臋ta Society for the Encouragement of Fine Arts, which have become part and parcel of Polish contemporary art. They illustrate a number of phenomena that emerged in the context of Wroc艂aw art, whose origins draw upon the complex history of Lower Silesia and its capital. The construction of the presentation offers an insight into the local art history since the 1960s, although it does not impose any specific direction of investigation. Instead, the display constitutes a map of conceptions and tendencies that have appeared throughout decades. The existence of a link between these tendencies is far from certain because the identity of Wroc艂aw art revolves around different 鈥渕yths鈥�. Thus the intention behind the exhibition Concrete Wroc艂aw is not to propose a canon of artists who have rendered the greatest services to the city, but rather to juxtapose various artistic practices in an attempt to outline common areas.

Although the works chosen for presentation at MWW illustrate different attitudes and forms, all of them share one specific aspect 鈥� a tinge of intellectual art that was unique to Wroc艂aw, which ordered and highlighted different phenomena in order to stimulate the mental faculties of the audience and provide them with an opportunity to experience aesthetic sensations.
