ALL THE SUNS

Summer ticks by slowly at the gal­lery. The sun circ­les the garden and the display room in a wide arc, lazily flic­king its long tongue.

Oskar Dawicki
MEN

This new project by Oskar Dawicki com­bines elements of per­for­mance and photography and is per­meated, as is a number of previous works of the artist’s, by the mood of existen­tial sorrow. The series of photographs prompts a reflec­tion on the role and position of traditional masculinity. To be a man is today – as the work visually argues – a chal­len­ging task, and a con­dition sub­ject to extreme pressure.

If I Were the Moon

The post-​romantic figure of the drun­ken artist is fading into the past, leaving behind a land­scape lit­tered with hal­lucinations, depravity, and shat­tered illusions. This is the story of the intimate ties between con­tem­porary art and vodka. Con­ceived as a medley of artworks and documen­tary con­tent, the exhibition features Krzysztof M. Bed­nar­ski, Olaf Brzeski, Michał Budny, Rafał Buj­now­ski, Oskar Dawicki, Edward Dwur­nik, Władysław Hasior, Jerzy Lewczyński, Honorata Martin, Dominika Olszowy, Zbigniew Rogal­ski, Wil­helm Sasnal, and others.

Oskar Dawicki
MARY

Oskar Dawicki, a literary and film figure, an artist known as a prac­titioner of total per­for­mance, presents this time a dys­topian nar­rative: a kind of script, or more precisely a recon­struc­tion, of a per­for­mance originally direc­ted in a dream. The cen­tral figure in his vision is a pregnant woman, the heroine of our times, nourisher of the unborn but also caretaker of the dead. As befits a doub­ting artist, the world of his creation is full of ambivalence.

Oskar Dawicki
ONE PIECE TOO LITTLE

One Piece Too Little is a treatise on the essen­tial nature of creativity. Dawicki raises the question of where the limits of spec­tacle are set with regard to art and to life – of the dif­ference between a show and one’s destiny, between represen­tation and recreation, between a work of art and its profanation.

Performer

Oskar Dawicki’s “Performer” is a story about him­self as a fic­tional charac­ter. The exhibition, com­bining various disciplines – art, film and literature – is a unique enter­prise where the per­for­mer, Dawicki’s alter ego, appears in dif­ferent incar­nations, con­stan­tly examining the boun­dary between work of art and reality.
