Filmoteka of the Museum

Filmoteka of the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw operates with the goal of digital protection and distribution of outstanding audiovisual works from Polish visual artists of the 20th and the early 21st century. Filmoteka is also a research and educational project embracing the media-related dimension of Polish art. Our mission is both to develop an archive within the Museum and to make films available on the Internet for the purposes of education and propagation – on behalf of the artists and under the imperative of unrestricted access to knowledge – to provide instant access to everyone interested in the field.

25 abandoned yugo monuments

Kruševo

...From 2006 to 2009, Kempenaers toured around the ex-Yugoslavia region (now Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, etc.) with the help of a 1975 map of memorials, bringing before our eyes a series of melancholy yet striking images. His photos raise a question: can these former monuments continue to exist as pure sculptures? On one hand, their physical dilapidated condition and institutional neglect reflect a more general social historical fracturing. And on the other hand, they are still of stunning beauty without any symbolic significances.

Save Rugina !

It took the artists Nicolai Ischimji and Valerii Moshkov 25 years of hard work and several tons of scrap-metal and industrial waste to sculpt this unique art installation of European significance – the outdoor sculpture complex “Rugina & Co” – “РЖАвЧИНАХ” (“RustInRanks”). The exhibition of sculptures is organically integrated into the landscape and includes pieces such as “Purgatory”, “Bureaucratic Apparatus”, “The Shepherd”, “Iron Curtain” – a vivid three-dimensional contemplation on the age of totalitarianism and industrialization.

“Rugina” by any account is a major phenomenon of Moldova’s contemporary art: this sculptural complex is a testimony to the conceptual power and a vast creative potential of its artists. Moreover, it is a true blueprint of non-conformity, an example of selfless service to the ideals of art and expressional freedom in the conditions of underground under a totalitarian regime, a powerful manifesto of intellectual independence and global mentality.

Modern art was CIA 'weapon'

For decades in art circles it was either a rumour or a joke, but now it is confirmed as a fact. The Central Intelligence Agency used American modern art - including the works of such artists as Jackson Pollock, Robert Motherwell, Willem de Kooning and Mark Rothko - as a weapon in the Cold War. In the manner of a Renaissance prince - except that it acted secretly - the CIA fostered and promoted American Abstract Expressionist painting around the world for more than 20 years.
