“Ménage à Deux”

Galeria Labirynt

O wystawie

The first joint exhibition of two artists whose artistic interests are extremely different, but they seem to be very close in their distinctiveness. Maurycy Gomulicki is a hedonist and a promoter of Culture of Pleasure for whom pop culture is a constant source of inspiration. Karol Radziszewski is a queer artist working for the LGBT+ community who uses the codes of popular culture. The exhibition presents the points of view of two artists – men of different sexual orientations, showing that such a meeting is possible.

 

Maurycy Gomulicki, b. 1969 in Warsaw, lives and works in Warsaw and Mexico City. He graduated from the Graphics Department of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and continued his studies at the Universitat de Barcelona, at Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan and at Centro Multimedia del Centro Nacional de las Artes in Mexico. Artist, designer, photographer, collector and anthropologist of popular culture. He creates photographs, sculptures, installations, videos and animations. The artist also deals with graphic design and book illustration. He has created a number of objects in public space. Gomulicki is a hedonist who consistently promotes Culture of Pleasure. In many projects, he engages in dialogue with eroticism, pornography and fetish. The intense colour, explored both in its vital potential and in the sociocultural dimension, is an important element in the artist’s work. His actions concerning visual manifestations of broadly understood popular culture blur the boundaries between low and high culture.

Karol Radziszewski, b. 1980 in Białystok, lives and works in Warsaw. He graduated from the Faculty of Painting of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. Creator of films, photographs, installations, author of interdisciplinary projects, publisher of magazines and books, he creates fashion and curatorial projects. He is the founder, publisher and editor-in-chief of DIK Fagazine – the first and only artistic magazine from Central and Eastern Europe dedicated to homosexuality and masculinity published since 2005. Radziszewski is a winner of the main prize in the 3rd edition of the Samsung Art Master competition (2009) and winner of Paszporty Polityki award (2009). In 2015 he founded the Queer Archives Institute, a non-profit organisation dedicated to the research, collection, digitisation, presentation, analysis and artistic interpretation of queer archives with a focus on Central and Eastern Europe. The first QAI exhibition inaugurating the project took place in Videobrasil (São Paulo) in 2016.

      O wystawie

      The “Expand” series continues! On Saturday, 17th October in Galeria Labirynt | Plaza opening of the second edition of the exhibition takes place. This time Monika Zadurska-Bielak, Adam Oroń and Sławomir Toman are going to present their works. They are going to be offered for purchase as previously.

      The second edition of the exhibition “Expand” is coming. Its main idea is to present the work of artists associated with Lublin. The cycle was created as a result of the difficult time of the pandemic and the reflection it awakened on the importance of community and localities. The pandemic time turned out to be a time full of fear for oneself and for the loved ones, which is why the authors of the exhibition changed the previously adopted perspective of perception and shifted their attention from what is in the future to what is here and now. Deciding to focus on our immediate surroundings, we give Lublin artists the space of Galeria Labirynt | Plaza. The “Expand” series was opened in September by Edna Baud, Małgorzata Pawlak and Jakub Ciężki, who presented their latest painting works. In the second edition of the exhibition, the viewers are going to have the opportunity to see sculptures by Monika Zadurska-Bielak as well as paintings by Sławomir Toman and Adam Oroń. The works are also going to be available for purchase! Another edition of the exhibition in November.

        YOU’LL NEVER WALK ALONE

        13-12-2020 - 16-5-2021

        Galeria Labirynt

        O wystawie

        “You’ll Never Walk Alone” is an exhibition-manifesto of solidarity with women who took to the streets after the ruling issued on 22nd October 2020 by the Polish Constitutional Tribunal led by Julia Przyłębska. As a result, Poland became one of countries with the most restrictive abortion laws in the world. That is why women protest, demanding freedom of choice and the right to decide on their own lives.

        The exhibition is a voice of support for victims of institutionalised violence. We express our solidarity with people who demonstrate during marches and blockades, as well as with those who stay at home – because the apparatus of repression and contempt destroys their mental health and fills them with fear.

        Opening of the exhibition “You’ll Never Walk Alone” took place on December 13th, 2020 – on the anniversary of imposing martial law in Poland. From that day on, the display is going to expand, being supplemented with the submitted proposals, thus expressing constant social mobilisation.

        To participate in the exhibition, we invite authors of banners, slogans, cardboards, stickers, graphics, strike posters, photographic and video documentation of the demonstration as well as artists supporting protesters, creating works that are in solidarity with the All-Poland Women’s Strike.

        We would like to show this great nationwide grassroots movement that has occurred in many hundreds of cities and towns across the country.

        Works can be brought to Galeria Labirynt in person, sent by traditional post or by internet transfer. In some cities we are going to organise works collecting events, similar to Joseph Beuys’ historical “Polentransport” from 1981.

        The banners can also be made at the exhibition in the Open Studio of Banners.

        Postal address: Galeria Labirynt, ul. ks. J. Popiełuszki 5, 20-052 Lublin

        The exhibition is best viewed after dark, which is why it is open from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., and the video projections are turned on at 8 p.m.
