Global Conceptualism

Don't be turned off by the rubbish title. This exhibition is made up of more than 200 works by 135 artists from Africa, Asia, Austalia, New Zealand, Europe, Latin America, North America and the former Soviet Union. Organized by New York's Queens Musuem of Art, the groundbreaking show boasts 14 international curators. Many of these pieces carry a political message, provoking assaults on the status quo. Curious visitors will see how Cold War-era artists revolted against systems of authority.
