Description: Coinciding with Milan Art Week 2022, the Padiglione d'Arte Contemporanea (PAC) opened Polish artist Artur Żmijewski's first solo exhibition in Italy, titled “When Fear Eats the Soul”. Artur Żmijewski is considered as one of the most important radical figures on the Polish art scene. His work reflects a concern for the socio-political problems of our contemporary world, and through it the artist frequently examines the mechanisms of power and oppression within the existing social order. The exhibition at PAC, curated by Diego Sileo, presents a selection of historical and recent works, including three new works conceived specifically for this Milanese project and produced by PAC, such as the new film inspired by the scientific cinema of the neurologist Vincenzo Neri and the photographic series Refugees/Cardboards, a long black and white photographic mural from which emerge human figures that look like refugees, men and women surrounded by darkness and desolation. The reference is to the many refugees on the Polish-Belarusian border during the summer and fall of 2021, but who today inevitably are also the image of the current war oppression in Ukraine.
