The act of emigration offers artists a chance to expand their horizons and connect with new audiences, while also promoting cultural exchange and fostering a greater understanding of the harmony of our world. Relocation can also be seen as a way for artists to challenge dominant narratives, power structures, and to explore different perspectives and

It is not without reason that I recall, at the very beginning, the almost sacred words of Rosław Szaybo, which were heard many times during the most heated discussions during the 30/30 Competition. Usually, there was a deafening silence afterwards, glances were exchanged and a raging brainstorm could be felt J What should a good cover be like?

Witch Hunt. Non-places of memory (diploma exhibition)Exhibition opening: 15.06-18.06, 11:00-17:00Finissage: 17.06 18:00Venue: UAP Design Gallery, 9 Wolnica Str., Poznan Non-places of memory is a term used in the context of places that are not officially recognized, commemorated or protected as historical or national memory sites, but which have significance for collective memory, often through their symbolism or the events that took place there. Unlike memorials, such as museums, monuments or war cemeteries, non-memorials can be forgotten, neglected or even unknown to the general public. Their essence is that they store memory in an informal way and often require some effort on the part of people to find and understand their meaning. The exhibition Witch Hunt. Places of Non-Memory is based

Hjörleifur Halldórsson | Diploma exhibition IMPERMANENCE Opening: June, 12 at 18:00Duration of exhibition: June, 12-15, 12:00 – 19:00 Impermanence Everything will eventually fade away. Nothing is permanent. Our lives, society, emotions and the world are all temporary. In this exhibition I try to capture the concept of transience as a positive and creative force. Acceptance of transience serves as a gateway to minimizing suffering. This belief brings the peace of mind to accept the things that cannot be changed and the courage to change the things that can be changed, as well as the wisdom to distinguish between the two. What comes next will reveal itself in due time. My paintings are a form of narration of what usually becomes

Family in the folds of reality | Zofia SłupczyńskaGallery Nowa Scena UAP, 28 Marcinkowskiego Ave.Duration of exhibition: 4-9.06.2024 Zofia Słupczyńska’s master’s degree deals with the topic of family in the modern world, which is entangled in certain folds imposed by reality. The issue is presented through the use of draperies and people interacting or not interacting with them. The fabric takes on the role of a symbol of the relationship between people who pull it, touch it, or leave it without any interference. The works encourage reflection on the existing situation and reality, which does not always have to be as we think. Family has always been an important aspect in my life. Many times, my loved ones lifted my

B (20, 23 Lutego Str.) Over the years, Geert Lovink has mapped out a range of mental states caused by social media platforms, from sadness and melancholia to depression, silliness, boredom, exhaustion, up to the Zoom fatigue during Covid. In this lecture, he will give an overview of the extractive (data) strategies and focus on one particular state: loneliness. There is an inflation of worn-out terms, a linguistic implosion of meaning like the word ‘social’ in ‘social media’. As Sherry Turkle already noted in 2011, we are all alone together. This seems to be our techno-destiny. Inside
