Titled The Classroom, the work recreates a Polish classroom from the 1990s, incorporating material from the artist’s collection of queer histories from Central and Eastern Europe into school desks and chairs.
The material forms part of Radziszewski’s long-term research into queer experiences in Central and Eastern Europe.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, the director of Moderna Museet, Gitte Oerskou, said that The Classroom has been acquired by the museum.
"We are very proud that Radziszewski’s work will become part of our core exhibition," she said.
Born in 1980, Radziszewski is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans film, painting, installation and publishing.
Over the past two decades, he has collected stories, materials and oral histories documenting queer experience in Central and Eastern Europe.
The collection of Moderna Museet in Stockholm comprises more than 130,000 works by artists from around the world, as well as approximately 100,000 photographs.
The Classroom will remain on view until 12 April.
