Without His suggestions or decisions.With doubts.The sun is shining as we hang canvases in the gallery, and a piece of paper falls off the board. Is it a sign or a naive wish?It’s quiet on this floor.Memories of an indulgent smile. From the very beginning, the image should announce its final appearance. He carried landscapes inside him and rarely went out to see them. He did not have to. The earth enchanted by rebuses is present in the landscapes painted around the house. In the garden, near a few stones, a bunch of sticksMore

REINTERPRETATIONS | Exhibition by students from the Studio of Open Art Interpretations Gallery Design, 9 Wolnica Str. Curator: Aleksander RadziszewskiOpening: 15.04.2024, 18:0015.04-5.05.2024 The exhibition presents the works and projects of students from the Studio of Open Art Interpretations, whose starting point was reflections on specific works of other artists, creative attitudes and various theories and concepts in the field of art. The resulting REINTERPRETATIONS are works that enter into dialogue with other works, in a sense paying homage to them, or in opposition to them, thus taking an extremely critical approach. And sometimes, they are simply a development and update of a certain artistic thought. Nevertheless, each of these activities led to the creation of works and projects of a completelyMore

It’s just that these media images have little in common with the images brought to life by painters. There is still an elite of people who create unique objects – paintings and an elite of people who are fortunate to experience these objects in the only way that is right for them, in the original. What percentage of our population realizes this? Who knows what painting is? Who can answer the question: which painting is good and which is bad? PiotrMore

monster | Martyna Pakuła  Gallery Duża Scena UAP, 24 Wodna Str. Opening: 28.03.2024, 18:00Duration of exhibition: 28.03-14.04.2024 monster is the experience of invisible suffering from another person. Thousands of seemingly insignificant events that create uncertainty. These are long hours of talking to the wall, where words lose their value and get lost in the void. The monster is the growing loneliness and slow detachment from oneself. It’s an escape attempt that comes full circle. The monster is emotional violence in partnerships. It is a phenomenon that happens every day but is rarely noticed or discussed. It is something that remains invisible to outsiders, even to the victim him/herself. Emotional abuse is often masked by seemingly normal social interactions, and yet itsMore

The only element in a work of art that reveals something Other, that enables contact with something Other, constitutes the substantive element in a work of art. It almost seems that the substantive element in a work of art is like a foundation in which and on top of which the Other is properly built. And isn’t this substantive element of the work what the artist actually creates in his craft? WeMore
