The Way Things Are explores the question of artistic representation of today's increasingly precarious work and social spheres within advanced economies. As we are experiencing radical processes of transformation, the multivoiced 'work histories' by Anetta Mona Chisa and Lucia Tkácová, Los Carpinteros, Julian Rosefeldt, Allan Sekula, and Andreas Siekmann negotiate the space between global ecologies and individual and localized realities. Framed by an extensive film program, this publication maps artists' and filmmakers' attentive engagement with contemporary experience of work, labour and production in our social world. Published on the occasion of an exhibition at the Centre of Contemporary Art Znaki Czasu, Torun, Poland, June - October 2008. English and Polish text.
