11th September - 31st October, 2018

The National Museum in Szczecin — The Szczecin History Museum

At the exhibition "Postbellum. What Do Winners Leave Unsaid? "Works on the conflicts of the first half of the twentieth century

are presented. They confront first of all with the looks of two historically hostile societies. They are a document revealing

the dark face of the front, a statue of grief after the fallen, the landscape of a destroyed city, a provocation showing the

degradation of civilization burdened with the stigma of war. However, in the eyes of the artists, the picture of war is

independent of nationality, and its effects are seen in a completely different way than the political decision-makers throwing

bones.
The exhibition is accompanied by a program of events prepared in cooperation with the Szczecin branch of the Polish Historical

Society, the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights (organizer of the "WATCH DOCS. Human Rights in Film") and thanks to the

authors and producers of the presented documentaries and the involvement of Szczecin scientists as well as young independent

artists. .
