The exhibition at Foksal 11/1 is a presentation of the artists cooperating with Alkatraz gallery. Alkatraz was founded 10 years ago and is now one of the most important independent cultural institutions in Slovenia. It cooperates with artists of different age and experience using various aesthetics. The works presented at Foksal 11/1 explore the topics of exclusion, citizenship, freedom and enslavement in the modern world. This important voice in the process of reinterpretation of modern culture is completely unknown in Poland even though so culturally close.

Ponomarevová Daniela
In her project DELTA Plan, Daniela Ponomarevová constructs and subsequently deconstructs a post-apocalyptic story responding to the current state of civilization. At the heart of this dystopian narrative is the presumed demise of Earth, which has become nothing more than a testing ground, a temporary refuge for humanity, which is inevitably awaiting destruction by a giant asteroid. The author opens up this fictional future scenario through a series of objects installed in the immersive environment of a supposed laboratory and a text-and-image document.
Ana de Almeida
For over a century, the factory in Střekov has influenced the structure of the city and the quality of life of its inhabitants. During the period of industrial development, Johann Schicht and his descendants built civic amenities in the city – a health center, spas, nurseries, a library, and residential buildings for their workers. After the company was nationalized, production continued and continued to employ a large number of newly settled residents. The national company Setuza also brought its employees together and enabled them to participate in "extracurricular activities," primarily in events organized by the Revolutionary Trade Union Movement, which included the organization of International Women's Day celebrations, St. Nicholas Day gifts, and children's camps.
