Presence in Absence. Katarzyna Kujawska-Murphy’s exhibition in the Nowa Scena Gallery | Interview by Contemporary Lynx Katarzyna Kujawska-Murphy is a visual artist, creator of art installations and academic teacher. Her interest lies primarily in the notions of time and space explored through the lens of psychophysiology of perception, social aspects of human existence immersed in the contemporary urban landscape.

13th Biennale of Graphic Arts / ERROR Deadline for submitting entries: 15 February 2023 The Biennale of Graphic Arts, established in 1999, is a cyclical review/competition presenting the works of artists of the young generation, working in the field of graphic arts. Since 2019, the formula of the competition has changed by specifying thematic areas that emphasise alternative values entering into a dialogue with contemporary culture and everyday life. The new formula of the biennale has been adapted to changes in contemporary art related to post-art activities (1: 1 art, ‘utilitarian’ art, material realism) and adapted to transformations conditioned by the role of graphic statements in the context of social activities (activist movements). The theme of the 13th Graphic Biennale,

I love you Miłość może łączyć z emocjami względem innej osoby, grupy, przedmiotu.

Po rewolucji francuskiej, istotną rolę w kulturze mieszczańskiej pełniło kształtowanie własnego dobra. Troska o prywatne interesy i otoczenie przekładała się na korzyść całego narodu. Ukształtowany w ten sposób „zakres dobra” łączy się jednocześnie z odrzuceniem nie przynależących do grupy. „Egoizm narodowy jest przyrodzonym egoizmem ogólnej istoty państwa, w przeciwieństwie do egoizmu charakteryzującego feudalne warstwy”1. Wartości istotne dla określonej grupy ludzi (narodu) stają się ważniejsze niż jednostkowy partykularyzm, czy też ogólnoludzkie interesy bazujące na utylitaryzmie. „(…) egoizm, którego treścią jest naród, jest ogólniejszy, czyli czystszy, niż egoizm, którego treścią jest
