PCAI is happy to announce the participation of PCAI collection artists Basel Abbas & Ruanne Abou-Rahme and Eva Papamargariti in the group exhibition Looking Away at the Gallery of Contemporary Arts and Celje Regional Museum, in Slovenia.
Curated by Maximilian Lehner, Looking Away will be on view from September 9, 2026, to January 3, 2027.
This exhibition is also about looking away in order to think and see beyond the image, to uncover “overlooked” stories and issues, indicating a need to truly look, rather than pretending we know what must be done, or using art as a substitute for genuine empathy. Looking Away brings together works that reveal the limits of representation. These pieces deliberately turn away from the obvious, yet they are powerfully present: where the past is denied, the present is censored, and the future appears as a scenario of scarcity and deprivation – though only for those who are unable to alter its course.
