Show on map
Join the dissident artist in a symbolic performance in the exhibition MADe IN CHINA. Forgotten is a series of monumental drawings created by Badiucao based on the infamous photographs of children affected by world conflicts. These photographs appeared on the front pages of the world’s media for some time, but they were quickly forgotten in the flood of other news and information as were the fates of those captured on the drawings. Badiucao symbolically points out this fact in tomorrow’s performance Forgotten… Don’t miss the last opportunity to meet the artist during his stay in Prague.
