The Robinson’s Ship

I am super proud that my 4 paintings participate in this prestigious exhibition! Opening tomorrow in Wroclaw, Poland!!!
Robinson’s Ship / 11.05.2019 - 28.08.2019
From the 11th of May the exhibition entitled Robinson's Ship transforms the space of Wrocław Museum of Architecture into a shipwreck. Artworks by 55 contemporary visual artists from Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary, all working in various media, are being presented in the remains of the crashed ship.
The official opening of the exhibition takes place on the 10th of May (Friday) at 6:00 PM at the Museum of Architecture in Wrocław (5 Bernardyńska Street). It is accompanied by a concert.
In his text entitled "Ethics of Elfland" Gilbert Keith Chesterton compared our civilization to a wrecked ship, from which the hero of Daniel Defoe's famous book, Robinson Crusoe, would fish out all objects he needed to survive on a desert island. The British writer pointed out that in a sense our civilization resembles a ship after a disaster, whilst artworks are an element which enables us to rescue the values that define our humanity: the Truth, Beauty and Good, which – for us to survive as mankind – must be saved in every generation. Therefore, the main idea behind the exhibition organized in the former monastery rooms of the Museum of Architecture is to refer to traditional European values through contemporary artists’ visual creativity. These values are the roots of our civilization. Thus, they require salvage and care – especially in today’s world, where several ideas and norms once cultivated become equivalent to remains of a wrecked ship.
For the purposes of Robinson’s Ship show exhibition rooms have been set designed as a shipwreck, with artworks located among its remains. Consequently, the show departs from a linear presentation scheme, while individual pieces have been be closely linked to its scenographic concept.
The show features about 190 artworks, which makes it one of the largest exhibitions of figurative art in Central and Eastern Europe. It showcases 55 young and promising artists from Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary. The pieces on show include painting, graphics, photography as well as sculpture and glass objects.
The Robinson’s Ship exhibition lasts until the 28th of July 2019.
