Yan Tomaszewski. Message from Charlotte

5 December 2015 ‒ 23 January 2016

Yan Tomaszewski’s exhibition Message from Charlotte imagines a fictitious situation in the future.

Natalia Bażowska. Luna

5 December 2015 ‒ 23 January 2016

In nature, wolves live in organised social groups, they are able to create the most complex and functional hierarchical structure in the world of animals. Hierarchy is fundamental – once it is disturbed, the entire pack falls apart. Excluded wolves live outside the pack. Those are specimens that somehow caused difficulties to the group: they did not want or could not subordinate. Living in isolation, they refrain from scent marking for fear of conflicts; they also often resign from howling. Solitary wolves wander intensely in search of areas that are not yet occupied, where they can live, as well as in search of other specimens, in search of proximity.

Bartosz Zaskórski. And the Dudes are Wallflowers

26 September ‒ 14 November 2015

And Dudes Are Wallflowers is an individual show by Bartek Sikorski, an exhibition that adopts the form of installations – compositions of images, music, video projections. The title refers to a popular term for guys who stay away from the dance floor at school discos or parties. While girls have already been rocking the floor for a while, those chaps keep on standing by the walls, staring at the tips of their shoes...

Magdalena Starska. Everything Keeps Vigil

26 September ‒ 14 November 2015

The essence of Magdalena Starska’s work consists in an attempt to domesticate reality, interactions with one’s own imagination and with the society, whose paradigms (instant communication, pursuit of the accumulation of goods and ongoing growth) trigger anxiety, stress and states of depression. In an era that has transformed the public domain and intimacy into a setting of transactions, calculation and struggle for attention, Magdalena Starska encourages contemplation. The artist minimises stimuli and expectations, while the process of satisfying the need of interpersonal contact is broadened in her case to embrace the sphere of objects.

1‒10 September 2015

Crackles

6‒29 August 2015

I needed a word to describe this turbulence of pleasure and pain my ears were experiencing from the moment I awoke until long after I closed my eyes at night. The word “soundscape”, occurred to me. I think I invented it, deriving it from landscape, but I may have borrowed it from somewhere. It doesn't matter. I used it as a neutral word to imply all or any acoustical environments.
