Design of a prosthetic leg for water sports | Kuba Garstkiewicz
Design of a prosthetic leg for water sports | Kuba Garstkiewicz Gallery Design UAP, 9 Wolnica Str.Opening: 23.05, 18:00On display till 4.06 The impulse for implementation was the analysis and observation of the environment of amputees, which showed that despite the high development of technology, there are still areas of prosthetics that have not been developed by any solution. Practicing water sports requires balance, motor coordination and the involvement of the entire muscular system. Significant difficulties in the coordination of leg work while swimming can be observed among people after a leg amputation below the knee line. Currently offered prosthetic solutions do not provide plantar flexion of the foot, which is needed for comfortable swimming. The assumptions of the projectMore

“Landscapes of the Future” – meeting with the curator Tjaša Pogačar Intermedia UAP together with this year’s Guest Studio, led by the Inside Job duo (Ula Lucinska, Michal Knychaus), invite to an open meeting with curator and art theorist Tjaša Pogačar from Ljubljana, currently living and working in Prague.

Current art’s imaginations of future landscapes seem to be shaped by sci-fi films, speculative fiction, posthumanist theories, and historical non-western futurisms, amongMore

The image treated in this way began a dialogue with values previously not attributed to it, which influenced not only new content, but also the way it was displayed. Thanks to the experience of art, it has been thrown into the unlimited space of experiencing it in a new, different and also non-paintingMore

13th Biennale of Graphic Arts
Biennale of Graphic Arts, established in 1999, is a cyclical review presenting the work of artists of the young generation, active in the field of graphic arts. For some time, we have been implementing a new formula of the Biennale, which is adapted to changes in contemporary art and to the role of graphic statements in the context of social activities (activist movements). The theme of the 13th Biennale of Graphic Arts, which will start on April, 21 this year in Poznan, is “Error” – an issue that criticizes the existing reality as defective and imperfect in relation to art, proposing instead improvements and transformations within culture and society. At the exhibition, we will see dozens of works by youngMore
MYOPIA
Gallery Nowa Scena UAP, Al. Marcinkowskiego 28 Opening: 14.04.2023, 18:00 Duration: 14 – 25.04.2023 The challenges of contemporary visual artists in the world of contemporary art are constantly changing and evolving, it is increasingly difficult for artists to maintain a balance between originality and accessibility, between exploration and commercialization. Myopia in the visual arts can be treated as a phenomenon that can lead to stagnation, superficiality, and even trivialization of the artistic message or lack of thought-provoking or emotion-provoking. In the era of globalization, Internet and social media, it is harder than ever for artists to maintain their identity and uniqueness. On the one hand, they want to be recognized and appreciated, on the other – they do not want toMore

At the same time, life continued its normal rhythm – it’s understandable, after all, you can’t stay in constant fear. The fear of the end of history is as unreal as it is attractive – a man tries to tame his own fear of death through creativity, various kinds of stories about the end. Dmytro Krasnyi presents the topic in a special way. Because can the end of the worldMore

EVIDENCE | Katsiaryna Kardash
EVIDENCE It’s not folklore. It’s national identity. It’s not a manifesto. It’s EVIDENCE. From March 25 – the Belarusian Independence Day, 12 video-performances will be uploaded on the Internet, on social medias and in Tik Tok application, one a day, reflecting the Belarusian national identity in various forms. Each of them represents one of the ritual songs of the Belarusian calendar year. These songs come from various regions of Belarus and were recorded during ethnographic expeditions at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. The recordings are reproduced in detail: they convey the intonation, singing technique and language dialect of the presented regions of Belarus.

Music of the Spheres
Music of the Spheres Duża Scena Gallery / UAP24 Wodna Street, Poznań, PolandOpening: March, 7, 18:00The exhibition is open from 7 March to 1 April 2023 For a long time, music was not so much a concept defining the audible harmony of sounds, but primarily a mathematical science of proportions, one of the liberal arts. In a broader sense, it was perceived as order—in both the anthropological sense (musica humana) and in the cosmic sense (musica mundana). This order was an abstract, soundless form that was the subject of philosophical considerations and mathematical calculations. The title of the exhibition Music of the Spheres refers to the concept that dates back to Pythagorean times, linking the mathematical order with the constant movementMore

Through the interaction of the vertical and the horizontal, wholeness is achieved, harmony and balance is created in the world. Seemingly united by formal requirements, the participants in the exhibition are at the same time free to express their views on the subject.

Really – or how really? Are we able to capture really in today’s world filled with lots of stimuli and alternative realities? The young generation of graduates of the University of Arts really face their own. They draw from the surrounding reality, not only the real one. They weave social, political and sociological threads into their works. Reality is falling apart into tiny pieces of personal choices and history.

Kazimierz Rabadr Łukasz Gruszczyńskimgr Andrzej Lenarczyk REFLECTIONS A studio as an idea – a studio as an environment The curator’s premise for the series of exhibitions entitled Reflections is to show a sculpture studio as an idea connecting a professor and graduates by an unrestricted clause of time and formal affiliation. The studio defined in this way includes artists gathered around assumptions and methods that have shaped their personalities and initiated their creative paths over the years. Showing the environment of the studio from the perspective of a lecturer is one of the possible interpretations of its assumptions. When selecting participants, the professor-curator asksMore

Václav Rodek | Sítě snů / Nets of Dreams curator: Sławomir Kuszczak opening: 3.02.2023, 18:00 Exhibition: 3–17.02.2023 Monday–Friday 9:00–19:00 Galeria Szewska 16 ul. Szewska 16, Poznań An invitation to a joint journey The analysis of Vaclaw Rodek’s oeuvre based on reflection on the real world and the achievements of visual culture in reference to the principles of aesthetics will most likely lead us to the conclusion that the artist’s works are expressive and are a conglomeration of abstraction and figuration. Abstraction is often dominant. Moreover, the works of the Czech painter can be suspected of a certain nervousness, haste and understatement accompanying quite well-thought-out compositions. The works can be included in the area of modernist experience. However, being based onMore
