For more than one hundred years, Paris remained the global center of bohemian life. This exhibition conveys new insights into the notion of bohemia as it developed from the end of World War II to the end of the twentieth century across multiple places, including Paris, New York, London, San Francisco, Vancouver, Tehran, Zagreb, Prague, and Beijing. In addition to chronologically examining some of bohemia’s most emblematic scenes, it also looks at both the differences and the continuities that mark various manifestations of the movement, taking visitors on a journey through centers of bohemian life and communities of people who choose to live outside of mainstream values, creating their own artistic subcultures.
