The exhibition is a selection from international exhibition project MAPS (Art Cartography in the Centre of Europe 1960 - 2011) and presents not only known, but also lesser known and never before displayed works by artists active in the 1960s and 1970s in the areas of conceptual art and land-art, in the 1980s also in painting and photography, while the 1990s are reflected through neo-conceptual objects and installations.
The exhibition focuses on "mapping" interpretations and reflections of maps in the Slovak art scene in the juxtaposition of selected works by key artists in the Visegrad countries area: Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary. While it is composed chronologically, it also allows a layered reading through several themes present throughout the exhibition.
