Opening on Saturday, May 21, 6-9PM

For their second show at Raster, the Slavs and Tatars col­lec­tive presents an instal­lation in the form of a pickle-juice bar. The artists bring in the centuries-old kit­chen tradition of pic­kling to refer to the metaphorical fer­men­tation of the roman­tic con­cep­tion of father­land and power; the pic­kled juices served along with provocative lexical gym­nastics are meant to sug­gest an antidote for the pathos of Polish patriotism.
