KONRAD SMOLEŃSKI

Konrad Smoleński works easily in many different media, mostly in video, installations and performance. In his films Smoleński manipulates the footage and pays attention to the audio part – all of his films have rich soundtrack, usually made by separate music compositions. Smoleński enjoys both anarchic destruction and mastery of refine detail, his art also often involves a sense of humor that engages viewers’ expectations and artistic conventions.

KONRAD SMOLEŃSKI
Contemporary curating has undergone changes. From efforts to build distance and protect a balanced reflexive position it has shifted towards empathy, cooperation and attempts to dehierarchize. Naturally, this is not always the case, but Jakub Adamec is a good example of the fruit that this type of curatorial work may bear.
Life on Earth has gone through some four billion years of evolution and has always already been together, intertwined with a network of intimate relationships. We all share a common ancestor, we all need the same compounds to live, and our structure is made with the same building blocks, we all share common understanding of “substance semiotics”.
