Artists Museum Construction in Process, Tylna Street, Lodz, Poland

Construction in Process (Polish: Konstrukcji w Procesie) was a series of international global exhibitions organized by artists in the 1980s and 1990s.[1][2] The originator of this project was Polish artist Ryszard Wasko.[3][4][5] Artists who were invited to participate in "Construction in Process" invite in turn, another group of participants, giving the project a dynamic, open character. Another original idea was to spur the artists to create their works on site.[6]
