It highlights the impact of post-industrial capitalism on both prosperous Western societies and socialist economies. The third chapter, "Dark Planet: Art, Spirituality, and Future Coexistence", curated by Magda Lipska and Szymon Maliborski, presents works drawing on non-modernist traditions such as folk, amateur and indigenous art. Inspired by Roman Stańczak's work, this section captures the tensions of rapid societal change and its impact on art and existence.
