As part of Women's Day celebrations at MSN, we invite you to a special curator's tour of the exhibition “Other Tomorrows”, which is one part of the exhibition “City of Women”. The walk through the exhibition will be led by the exhibition's curator Vera Zalutskaya. The exhibition “Other Tomorrows” reveals alternative ways of thinking about identity and community, beyond the dichotomies typical for our cultural circle (e.g. woman–man, nature–culture, human–animal), essentialism and exclusionary politics. International artists propose various strategies of being and thinking about subjectivity and relations with the world. The presented works refer to myths, technology, humour and fantasy as tools of emancipation and survival. The exhibition, gathering speculative artistic narratives, shows feminism in transformation — not as a closed struggle for women's rights, but as an inclusive movement open to developing visions of the future that take into account diverse forms of life. Participation in the tour requires purchasing a ticket and picking up a receiver at the small reception on the ground floor before the tour begins. The tour is conducted in Polish.
