Exhibition opening: “good home” [There is enough space for us]

Posted on by apkunstart

Soft, warm, familiar. It smells like bread. Own. But home also occurs while traveling, so it can be unstable. Home also endures during war, although it is not necessarily still safe. After all, home is also the Earth, even though we destroy it with our own hands. So is home always the most important thing? What does a “best livable” city mean? Or maybe “home” is simply a universe of the most important meanings?

After “bad home” and a series of podcasts, we invite you to the second exhibition as part of the “We Enough Space” (Miejsca nam wystarczy) project.

Artists:

Melanie Hollaus, Anna Wańtuch, Beata Malinowska-Petelenz, Artem Humilevskyi, Wisz Orłowski, Anna Rzyczniak, Sebastian Ożóg, Piotr Kogut, Franciszek Araszkiewicz

Media: photography, video, sound art

The project is being implemented with funds from the Poland’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan – KPO for culture.

Exhibition opening: “bad home” [There is enough space for us]

Is “home the cube of childhood | a house is a cube of emotion” (Zbigniew Herbert) or maybe “A house is not walls at all | and ceilings and floors” (Anna Kamieńska)?

A home, apart from its soul, also has a body. Physically, the home is there – or missing. It is messy or clean. Home can strengthen and home can tire. We live in specific places, spaces and contexts that cannot be erased. Home emotions can be tormenting, but also bad access, lack of greenery or neighbors. How do we live and what does it mean? Why do we call some spaces “bad”? How does space affect the psyche and is a Polish house different from others?

We cordially invite you to the international exhibition “Bad home” (zły dom) as part of the “We Enough Space” (Miejsca nam wystarczy) project.

There is enough space for us – a KPO for culture project

Posted on by apkunstart

We are happy to announce that our foundation will execute a project as part of the Poland’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan – KPO for culture titled “There is enough space for us (Miejsca nam wystarczy) – art exhibitions and a podcast with transcription”. This is a project dealing with the issue of physical and social neighborhood in Polish cities and small towns. How do we live and what does it mean? Why do we feel better in some places and how to improve others? The project will include two art exhibitions (stationary at the Momentum Gallery in Krakow) and a series of podcasts with transcription (online, published on spotify, YouTube, niemuzeum.pl) discussing conversations with experts: architects, sociologists, psychologists, artists. The aim of the project is cooperation and flow of knowledge and competences between the sector of artists, architects and space practitioners.

We cordially invite you to follow and participate!
