Exhibition ARE WE THERE YET?
Benešov Museum of Art and Design
February 15, 2026—May 31, 2026
Opening 14/2/2026/4 p.m.
The exhibition reflects on parenthood in contemporary art in its various forms—from motherhood and fatherhood to foster and adoptive care to shared family and community relationships. It traces how artistic reflection on this previously marginalized topic has changed over the last decade, opening up to men, queer parents, and caregivers from non-traditional positions.
The exhibited works capture both the joys and exhaustion, the transformation of identity, and the reevaluation or rediscovery of family patterns. The exhibition reflects the Czech and Slovak context shaped by political and economic conditions that fundamentally influence the parental experience and artistic practice. Last but not least, it explores how parenthood relates to the broader cultural and social changes of today.
