New major exhibition "We Don't Do This. Intimacy, Norms and Fantasies in Baltic Art" - from March 9, in MO Museum.
During the long decades of Soviet occupation, sexuality-related content and discussion were widely censored from the public. According to a famous catchphrase, there was no sex in the USSR. We ask why was sex so suppressed and what kind of love was allowed? How different are the region’s public notions of intimacy, gender, love and sexuality today? We Don’t Do This. Intimacy, Norms and Fantasies in Baltic Art will explore the shifts and changes in representations of gender, family and sexuality, marked by back-and-forth loosening and re-enforcement of norms throughout the Soviet era and beyond. IMPORTANT! Major exhibition contains works of sensitive content for children, such as themes and images of sexual nature and nudity. Minors are allowed entry when accompanied by an adult.
