Presentation of Karolina Kowalska’s video art, May 21, 7.00 PM, Pod Baranami Cinema, Main Market Square 27, Krakow.
After the show we will be pleased to meet you at the after-party in Miejsce club (Estery 1).
Karolina Kowalska is a versatile artists; she deals with photography, installations, objects and video art. Their subject-matter revolves around space: of a city, flat, and recently also the virtual one. Kowalska does not like defining her art according to one key concept; she dexterously steals away from easy classifications imposed by art critics, moving speedily in different directions following her interests. What is constant in her works is a peculiar sense of black humour, complemented with subtle irony. In the ART IN CIEMNA cycle we will present Kowalska’s old works such as „Self-servis” and „Opcja Boska” as well as the most recent ones.
